Explore Patrick’s place in history, the spread of Christianity beyond the Roman Empire, how Patrick first came to Ireland, the influence of the earlier Palladius on Patrick’s work, political and social conditions at that time, and the spiritual battles with the Druids. This 21st century edition includes notes from other notable biographers, mystics, historians, and storytellers of Ireland and is an ideal place to begin any exploration of this much loved but little-known saint.
[This book was previously published in hardcover and trade paperback and is now available in this smaller format, with a new cover design, for the first time.]

Discover how one man became devoted to the people who enslaved him and changed Ireland forever.
Explore the life of St. Patrick---a story full of Druids and sorcery, tribal leaders and ancient curses, and the flowering of Ireland. J.B. Bury, the first modern biographer of the great saint, sought to find the man beneath the layers of myth and legend. Now, Jon M. Sweeney introduces Bury's classic biography for twenty-first-century readers, including sidebar notes from other biographers, mystics, historians, and storytellers of Ireland.
