Reviews

“Historians, linguists, theologians, and textual scholars will, for many years to come, owe [Freeman] a debt of gratitude.” - Prof. Christopher A. Snyder, Marymount University

“This collection of sources offers scholars and students alike the tools by which to grasp the historical Patrick more accurately and in his own words, and it opens a window onto a historical period and geographic area that has attracted, but largely eluded scholars.” – Prof. Robert J. Christman, Luther College
