Has anyone got this book?

It is the 1956 translation of the Last Lords of Ormond by Risteárd Ó Foghludha, who was from Youghal, Co. Cork.

I have seen a copy on the Internet that I could order, and as ROF was a speaker of Cork Irish, it is within my remit, but the full title says "Risteárd ó Foghludha d'aistrigh go Gaeilge". The last word in the title implies that it is not in Cork Irish? But in 1956, surely Standard Irish was not fully propagated?

What is the rest of the book like? Munster Irish or not?
