New York: J. McLoughlin, 1844 In the winter of 432 Patrick landed near Saul and remained until spring, when he went to Tara and gained his first major converts. He defied the pagan priests of Tara by kindling the Easter fire on Slane, a nearby hill. This challenge to paganism created at first indignation, and subsequently respect, in the court of the high king. Tara became Patrick's headquarters, and with a band of followers he successively converted Meath, Leitrim, Cavan, and W Ireland. Further details of his missions are only generally known. In 444 or 445, with the approval of Pope St. Leo I, Patrick established his archiepiscopal see at Armagh. St. Patrick 's mission was successful; Ireland was almost entirely Christian by the time of his death. He understood and wisely preserved the social structure of the country, converting the people tribe by tribe. Out of his hierarchy, organized by tribal units, developed the Celtic abbot-bishop system. At Patrick's instance, the traditional laws of Ireland were codified. Patrick modified them to harmonize with Christian practice, and he mitigated the harsher ones, particularly those that dealt with slaves and taxation of the poor. He introduced the Roman alphabet. In 457 he retired to Saul, where he died. He was buried in Downpatrick, which was a great European shrine until its destruction by the English government in 1539. Also enshrined to him is Croaghpatrick. Patrick's connection with Saint Patrick's Purgatory in Lough Derg is undoubtedly only legendary. His personality is said to have been unusually winning, and many legends have become attached to his name. Some spotting and foxing and wear to spine top. Scarce.. First Edition. Hard Cover.

London: Kegan Paul International, 1991. A look at the politics of Colonel Gadaffy of Libya. Among contemporary leaders of the Middle East none has been so controversial, and idiosyncratic as Colonel Mu'ammar al-Qadhdhafi of Libya. Despite the considerable volume of literature dealing with Qadhdhafi and Libya since 1st September 1969 revolution, very little attempt has been made to describe seriously any part of the Libyan leaders thought, the actual and practical basis for a very thorough-going political movement. The present volume is the first to examine in depth the religious thought of Mu'ammar al-Qadhdhafi and its central place in his political, social and economic theories. The work is based on sources inaccessible except in the original Arabic. While drawn from Islamic concepts and sources. Qadhdhali's religious views are original. His religious openness and universal view of Islam and the other monotheistic religions in particular will be surprising to those familiar with only the image associated witil him in the Western mind. Islam and the Third Universal Theory is a useful source for students both of politics and of contemporary Islamic movements.. First Paperback Edition. Paperback.
