Capturing O'Neill: Dedication pages of books on Irish traditional music, signed by Capt. Francis O'Neill

Key Figures

O'Neill seems to have sent copies of his books to people in a few discernible categories—collaborators, clergy, family, etc. It is difficult to draw exact conclusions as to his intentions, but we can discern some tendencies. Of course—as is the case with all things in a historical study—we should also keep in mind the question of what has been saved, rather than inferring trends from the items that we have found.
