Stimulated by the research resulting in his first book on the Celts
(In Search of the Celts) the author follows this dynamic race's
progress through the first centuries of the Christian era.
Targeting primarily teenagers and young adults seeking basic facts
on their Christian inheritance, the author briefly summarizes the
early development of Christianity in Western Europe. The book is an
assembly of sketches on the main movers and shakers, integrated
with the astonishing story of the dedicated Christian priests and
supporters - all mainly "Irish" - who spearheaded the miraculous
revival of Christianity in Western Europe and the British Isles
through the fourth to tenth centuries by reconverting a population
who had relapsed back into paganism in the face of the vicious
Viking assaults of that period. The amazing story tells how a
country considered to be backward and illiterate became to be
regarded, almost overnight, as offering all young people (male and
female alike) the world's best literary and Christian education
available in the whole of Western Europe, a reputation it
maintained for some eight centuries until the Benedictine and
Carthusian monks assumed the crown in the thirteenth century. This
book is testimony to the courage, dedication and self-denial of
thousands of Irish Celtic Christian priests and their army of
supporters.
