This book is about the conflict of man that goes far deeper than the history of Ireland, or any other place for that matter. It's a conflict within the soul, which has expressed itself in a myriad of ways since man first rebelled against God at the dawn of creation. That first rebellion separated mankind from his Creator, and it continues today as people turn away from God's salvation, offered freely through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. I fitted into that category, as we all do, because we are all born as sinful creatures, separated from God.
