Description:
Princeton University Press, 2021 Book. New. Soft cover. A gripping biography that sheds provocative new light on the life of Saint Patrick. Saint Patrick was, by his own admission, a controversial figure. Convicted in a trial by his elders in Britain and hounded by rumors that he settled in Ireland for financial gain, the man who was to become Ireland's patron saint battled against great odds before succeeding as a missionary. Saint Patrick Retold draws on recent research to offer a fresh assessment of Patrick's travails and achievements. This is the first biography in nearly fifty years to explore Patrick's career against the background of historical events, and Roy Flechner leaves no stone unturned as he takes readers on a riveting journey through Romanized Britain and late Iron Age Ireland. Rather than a dismantling of Patrick's reputation, or an argument against his sainthood, Flechner's biography raises crucial questions about self-image and the making of a reputation. From…

THP Ireland, 2021 Book. New. Soft cover. Samhain was the entry point into winter, a time of hardship, cold and hunger ... It was also a time of introspection, of communing with the dead and the otherworld - themes that have somehow survived, albeit distorted, into the modern era.' The modern celebration of Halloween is derived from the ancient festival of the dead known in Ireland as Samhain. It is from Ireland that we have inherited most of our Halloween traditions, mainly through the diaspora. Delving into the ancient past, this book uncovers the history of this festival in Britain, Ireland and Brittany, including the forgotten goddess Tlachtga and the sacred temple of the Druids in Co. Meath, where the first Halloween fires were lit..

Description:
The Mercier Press Ltd, 2021 Book. New. Soft cover. In November 2008, Tomás Mac Conmara sat with a 105 five-year-old woman at a nursing home in Clare. While gently moving through her memories, he asked the east Clare native; 'Do you remember the time that four lads were killed on the Bridge of Killaloe?'. Almost immediately, the woman's countenance changed to deep outward sadness. Her recollection took him back to 17th November 1920, when news of the brutal death of four men, who became known as the Scariff Martyrs, was revealed to the local community. Late the previous night, on the bridge of Killaloe they were shot by British Forces, who claimed they had attempted to escape. Locals insisted they were murdered. A story remembered for 100 years is now fully told. This incident presents a remarkable confluence of dimensions. The young rebels committed to a cause. Their betrayal by a spy, their torture and evident refusal to betray comrades, the loneliness and liminal nature of their…

This is a journey into a turbulent period in Ireland's past and covers the exploits of charismatic guerrilla leader Sean Treacy, Tipperary's flying columns and the horrors of Croke Park's 'Bloody Sunday'. Tipperary's role in the War of Independence has been greatly under-played and this book analyses the main events and personalities of the time..

Description:
The Author, 2023 Book. New. Soft cover. One of the greatest enigmas of high-latitude exploration was the disappearance of Sir John Franklin, his crew of 129 souls and the two stout wooden ships Erebus and Terror that departed London in 1845. In recent years two Irishmen, Kevin Cronin and John Murray, collaborated with a Canadian team to form the Irish Canadian Franklin expedition to search for the sunken wrecks of Franklins lost ships in the treacherous waters of King William Island in polar Canada. They subsequently undertook land searches in the areas where the crew had abandoned their ice bound ships and attempted to track overland to safety to the trading posts in northwest Canada. In the wake of Erebus and Terror this book tells the story of this ongoing adventure of discovery - it's motivations, methods, personalities, the people with whom it engages - and describes the magnificent Arctic terrain it traverses and shares with the ill-fated Royal Navy officer and explorer Sir John Franklin..
