The Book of Kells is at the library of Trinity College, Dublin. There are color reproductions of most, if not all, of the Book of Kells available in the $50 - $75 range. Some less expensive versions are also available but these include less material and the reproductions are not always in color. These can probably be obtained from the Keshcarrigan Bookstore, 90 West Broadway, NY, NY (212) 962-4237 or from Facsimile Books, 5th Avenue & 55th St., NY, NY (212) 581-2672. Some other old illuminated manuscripts are: Book of Ballymote Book of Deer Book of Durrow Book of Invasions (Leabhar Gabhala - pronounced Lau'-er Ga-wal'-ah) Book of Leinster (pronounced Len'-ster) Book of the Dean of Lismore Book of the Dun Cow (Leabhar na h-Uidre) so called because the binding was made from the hide of a famous prize bull. This list should NOT be regarded as a complete list of ancient Celtic illuminated manuscripts.
