About
"The first book by an Irish writer to give an accurate account of the origins of the Columbans---the pre-history and early days of the Maynooth Mission to China. It focuses on Edward Galvin and John Blowick who, with other giants like Joseph Shanahan and Marie Martin, were architects of Ireland's astonishing missionary outreach in the twentieth century."--Back
