''Edward Nangle, The Apostle Of Achill: A Memoir And A History'' is a book written by Henry Seddall in 1884. The book is a detailed account of the life and work of Edward Nangle, an Irish Anglican clergyman who dedicated his life to evangelizing the people of Achill Island in County Mayo, Ireland. The book is divided into two parts: the first part is a memoir of Nangle’s life, written by Seddall, who was a close friend of Nangle. The memoir provides a personal account of Nangle’s upbringing, his education, his conversion to Anglicanism, and his work as a missionary on Achill Island. The memoir also includes anecdotes about Nangle’s interactions with the local people, his struggles with illness and poverty, and his unwavering commitment to his mission.The second part of the book is a history of Nangle’s work on Achill Island, written by Seddall and based on extensive research and interviews with local people. The history provides a detailed account of Nangle’s efforts to establish a mission on the island, including the building of schools, churches, and homes for the local people. The history also explores the social and economic conditions on Achill Island at the time, and how Nangle’s work impacted the lives of the people who lived there.Overall, ''Edward Nangle, The Apostle Of Achill: A Memoir And A History'' is a comprehensive and engaging account of the life and work of an important figure in Irish religious history. It provides insight into the challenges and triumphs of missionary work in the 19th century, and sheds light on the social and economic conditions of rural Ireland during that time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
