Description: "Clogher is an extensive diocese which straddles the Irish border. It is best known to historians for St. Patrick's Purgatory on Lough Derg, renowned across Europe. This book comprises a series of essays which address a wide range of subjects across much of the diocese's history from the earliest cult of St. Molaisse, through the Middle Ages and the penal days up to the eve of the 'Troubles' in Northern Ireland. This is the third volume in a series of historical essays on Irish dioceses."--Jacket.
