Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint Patrick is known worldwide as the patron saint of Ireland and is honored on the 17th of March every year as part of the St. Patrick's Day celebration. While it is widely celebrated as a cultural holiday, many people do not know much about the man behind the celebrations. Saint Patrick was born in Britain to a wealthy family in the 4th century. His life changed after he was kidnapped by Irish raiders and brought to Ireland as a slave at the age of 16. After six years of captivity, Saint Patrick escaped and eventually made his way back to Britain where he became a Christian missionary. Saint Patrick then returned to Ireland as a missionary, where he traveled the country and converted many people, built churches, and established monasteries. His approach was not confrontational but rather focused on compassion and love for the people he served. Over the centuries, his stories of miracles and conversions have become part of Irish folklore, and his influence on Irish culture has secured his place in history as a beloved symbol of the country. To this day, many people honor Saint Patrick as the patron saint of Ireland, and the feast day celebrating his life and legacy is one of the most widely celebrated holidays across the world. Overall, Saint Patrick's religious knowledge and love for the people of Ireland made an enormous impact on the country. The teachings of Saint Patrick, along with a mixture of Celtic and Roman Catholic traditions, created a unique meld of Irish culture, which has had a far-reaching effect on people's way of life. This influence is reflected in the plethora of Irish festivals, music, and sports, which have been celebrated all over the world in different countries with various people.

But when Caitlin and her younger brother, Sean, go out for an early morning run and only Sean returns, the mountains become as terrifying as they are majestic, as suddenly this family find themselves living the kind of nightmare they’ve only read about in headlines or seen on TV.

Download or read book Kut 1916 Courage and Failure in Iraq written by Patrick Crowley and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2009-11-17 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The siege of Kut is a story of blunders, sacrifice, imprisonment and escape. The allied campaign in Mesopotamia began in 1914 as a relatively simple operation to secure the oilfields in the Shatt-al-Arab delta and Basra area. Initially it was a great success, but as the army pressed towards Baghdad its poor logistic support, training, equipment and command left it isolated and besieged by the Turks. By 1916 the army had not been relieved, and on 29 April 1916, the British Army suffered one of the worst defeats in its military history. Major-General Sir Charles Townshend surrendered his allied force to the Turks in the Mesopotamian (now Iraq) town of Kut-al-Amara. Over 13,000 troops, British and Indian, went into captivity; many would not survive their incarceration. In Kut 1916, Colonel Crowley recounts this dramatic tale and its terrible aftermath.
