Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Irish Hierarchy: With the Monasteries of Each County, Biographical Notices of the Irish Saints, Prelates, and Religious
The Irish Catholic, who has sought a home in this land of the West, will be gratified to find the chain of the Episcopal succession of Ireland unbroken and unsevered from that Apostolic rock, which has protected the Irish Church in all her vicissitudes, and that apostolic bond, with the see Of Peter, kept up in its integrity to the present hour many of the Irish Prelates enjoying their sees without Parliamentary pretenders to contest those ancient landmarks, which their predecessors possessed from the remotest ages of their national Church.
