religion and spirituality, In the course of compiling a short history of our order, Dame Rosita McHugh discovered that the acorn she had planted had truly become a full-grown oak, a book rather than a booklet, in fact a volume which stands comparison with many previous treatises on the subject. What was to have been a minor labour became a major undertaking, involving not hours and days but months and years of research, both at home and abroad, collecting, compiling, and collating material from many sources, and then finally producing a book which the Irish Association is proud to publish. The book is far more than a potted history or a dry-as-dust summary of events. It evokes the spirit of the Order down the centuries. It underlines the Order's dedication to the poor and the sick from its foundation. It outlines the part the Order played in defending the pilgrims and the Holy places of Christendom, and plots its subsequent history as a Christian naval power as it was driven from the mainland at Acre, and moved westward along the Mediterranean.
