Synopsis

I Croagh Patrick: The Glorious Climb of Ireland’s Holy Mountain
Archeologist, historian and guide Michael Gibbons brings Ireland’s holy pilgrimage mountain to life in this panoramic sweep through 1500 years of Irish history, pilgrimage and faith. His solid learning, humor, and love for his land and its people will make you feel you’ve ascended the Reek itself. Armchair pilgrimage at its best!

II Asenath on the Reek
In 1844, after meeting Irish immigrants in Brooklyn, evangelical Quaker Asenath Nicholson sailed to Ireland to spend five years traversing the country and doing relief work among the starving Irish poor at the height of the potato famine. In this excerpt, she describes her ascent of Croagh Patrick; one of Michael Gibbons’ favorite accounts.

III The Spirit Set in Motion: Revisiting St. Patrick’s Mission to Ireland
Drawing on Irish history, law and culture, Orthodox Patrician scholar Pat Egan shares the ripe and burnished fruit she’s plucked from the writings of one of the West's most beloved saints. A remarkable recounting of St. Patrick's life and times.

IV Over the White-Capped Sea: Eight Late Antique Irish Poems
New renditions of familiar and less known early Irish poetry. From a fifth-century prophecy of Patrick to the well-loved Pangur Ban, the hermit’s cat, these poems sing with the joy and grace of early Ireland.
