The St Patricks Treasury: Celebrating the Myths, Legends and Traditions of Irelands Patron Saint

St Patrick is one of the best-known and best-loved saints in the world. His life and legacy is deeply ingrained in Irish history and society, as the annual 17 March celebrations in Ireland and across the globe show.

Northern Ireland now has its own St Patrick's trail, and many pilgrims flock to sites such as St Patrick's Purgatory and Croagh Patrick. In The St Patrick's Treasury John Killen brings together the legends, folklore, traditions and stories that have been associated with St Patrick across the centuries.

Richly illustrated throughout, this is a unique celebration of Irelands patron saint, and a collection to treasure.
