About the author (2022)

St. Patrick, the "Apostle of Ireland," was born in Britain. At age 16 he was captured by Irish pirates and carried into slavery in Ireland, where he labored in bondage for several years. He eventually escaped and returned to Britain, where he trained for the Christian ministry. At some point Patrick was sent to Ireland, where he spent the rest of his life evangelizing, conciliating local chieftains, ordaining clergy, and organizing the common life of monks and nuns. The few facts known about Patrick were embellished by his biographers in the Middle Ages.
