Does anyone have a list of the stories 
in the 12th centuryish Irish "Book of the
Dun Cow?"  My sources say that "Connla and
the Fairy Maid" is from there as well as 
parts at least of "Destruction of Da Derga's
Hostel," "Birth of CuCullaind" "The Wasting
Sickness of Cu Cullaind", "Bricriu's Feast",
the "Wooing of Etain" and some recognizable
bits of "The Cattle Raid of Cuailnge."

I may never see the book; one used book store
search gave me a copy at about $80(US) and I
can't afford that, but if I could get a list
of the stories in that book, then I could at
least work from secondary sources.

Thanks...
Conchobar (12th c. Irish)
