Download or read book Saint Patrick written by Marian Broderick and published by The O'Brien Press Ltd. This book was released on 2019-03-11 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engaging and rich exploration of Saint Patrick and his extraordinary influence on the world. Forced into slavery at the age of fifteen, Patrick overcame all hardship to fulfil his calling: to bring the people of Ireland into the light of God's word. He carried out his mission of conversion and care at a crucial time of change, as Christianity spread across Romanised Europe and harnessed existing social structures and belief systems in Pagan Ireland. Patrick met high kings and mythical heroes, Celtic gods and goddesses, lowly farmers and loyal servants, and he left lasting marks upon the Irish landscape and way of life. He was humble, courageous and resourceful, and was the first of Ireland's saints to write down his experiences. Thus began the cult of Saint Patrick, galvanised over 1500 years of devotion and scholarship, and culminating recently in the cheerful 'greening' of the world's most famous landmarks. Drawing from recorded histories, 'tall tales' from all four provinces and beautiful illustrations, this is a light-hearted look at the global phenomenon of Saint Patrick, his life and his legacy, the facts and the fiction of his incredible journey from slave to international saint.
Download or read book Do Not Forget written by James Hatcher and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-02-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following content is a compilation of sayings from both the Irish and the Scottish, which are often no longer heard in descendant families outside of the native lands, but should be. It applies to anyone, but that closeness bears down on those of Celtic descent when Gaelic is spoken, and rings echoes of our dearly departed parents and grandparents, who many of us long to hear argue, demand and insist that we do it the "correct way" in that Scots-Irish tone and fashion. Their voices are now silent, but their memories live on for their descendants to preserve through the traditions, recollections, and customs of both Tara and the Western Highlands.
