Written by a renowned British historian, J.B. Bury, the reader will learn the difference between myth and the facts of Saint Patrick’s life. For example, The Life of St. Patrick and His Place in History states that Saint Patrick was not the first Christian missionary to Ireland as there were Irish Churches already functioning upon his arrival. However, previous church leaders had perished of disease, etc. and Saint Patrick was sent to support the early Irish Churches as well as continue to evangelize the message of Christ throughout the island. Saint Patrick was a fifth-century Romano-British Christian missionary and bishop in Ireland. Known as the "Apostle of Ireland", he is the primary patron saint of Ireland.
