Originally published as St. Patrick: The Real Story, this is an extraordinary account of Patrick and his incredible journey from slave to saint.

Captured at the age of sixteen and forced into slavery in Ireland, this courageous and resourceful boy overcame all hardship to bring the people of Ireland to God’s word. Written for juveniles but suitable and informative for adults, this book presents not the Patrick of myth and legend but the real Patrick of the "Confessions" – brave individual, sensitive seer, persuasive orator, noble spirit, holy man, Ireland's patron saint.
