The book also explores the historical and cultural context of St. Declan's life, providing valuable insights into the early Christian church in Ireland and the role of saints in Irish society. Overall, The Life of St. Declan of Ardmore is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in Ireland and the lives of the saints who helped shape it.On the night of Declan's birth a wondrous sign was revealed to all, that is to the people who were in the neighbourhood of the birthplace; this was a ball of fire which was seen blazing on summit of the house in which the child lay, until it reached up to heaven and down again, and it was surrounded by a multitude of angels. It assumed the shape of a ladder such as the Patriarch.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
