	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: The Ionian Mission (novel) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Ionian Mission (1981) is a novel by Patrick O'Brian, the eighth in the Aubrey–Maturin series.
		The novel gives further scope to Maturin's role as both a secret agent (in which he uses propaganda effectively to support the campaign) and as a naturalist (in which he is seen collecting relics of the extinct birds the Dodo and the Solitaire).
		Maturin is sent on a mission to the Baltic to persuade the Catalan garrison of the fortress at Grimsholm to defect.

	The Ionian Mission by patrick obrian
		The Ionian Mission by Patrick O'Brian is book number 8 in the Aubrey/Maturin series of sea novels of 19th Century naval life by Patrick O'Brian.
		Jack's next job is to take over the Surprise and to go to Valetta in Malta and thence to meet with Babbington in the Dryad in the Ionian Sea where they have to negotiate with the beys in their power struggles.
		The Ionian Mission by Patrick O'Brian is a wonderfully rambling book and evokes the sea and the history of the 19th Century British Navy and the lifestyle.

	The Ionian Mission (Aubrey Maturin Series) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		This is a wonderful touch in "The Ionian Mission." Captain "Lucky Jack" Aubrey and Dr. Stephen Maturin, intelligence agent, surgeon and naturalist, have been through many scrapes and adventures, and OBrian allows the scars to show.
		Patrick OBrians "The Ionian Mission" is a solid entry in the Aubrey/Maturin novels- it could be read as a stand alone, but I do not recommend that.
		The mission is far from the dashing Frigate actions and independent journeys familiar to readers, however; Jack and Stephen are ordered to the Mediterranean to join the blockade of the French fleet.

	The Pronunciation of Ancient Egyptian
		When I was a child and visited the nearby old California mission at San Fernando, I was impressed how cool it was in the summer with its thick adobe walls.
		All the missions in San Antonio, Texas, five or more, were built of the plentiful Texas limestone.
		Thus, looking at the California missions, we use the same word for the same objects that the Egyptians commanded the Israelites to make for the palaces of Pharaoh.

	Britannia Biographies: St. Wilfred the Elder, Bishop of York
		It seemed to Wilfred that in the customs he had learned at Rome and the calculation of Easter he had received there, he had found a more excellent way than that known to those about him, the members of the Celtic Church to whom he owed his first lessons in the rudiments of Christianity.
		However, the first Northern bishop, Paulinus, had fixed his episcopal chair not at Lindisfarne, to which the later Scottish mission under Aidan had transferred it, but at York; and it was to this city that Wilfred immediately removed his new see.
		No objection seems to have been raised at the time but, when it was found that he lingered in France and left his see for some time uncared for, the Ionian party, headed by Alchfrith, persuaded King Oswiu to fill his place by the appointment of St. Chad, the Abbot of Lastingham.

		[2.13] When Ctesiphon returned from his mission, he first reported to you on the matters for which he was sent, and then in addition he said that Philip declared that he had gone to war with you against his own will, and that he wished, even now, to be rid of the war.
		It was claimed at Athens that he had promised, if given a free hand, to restore the place to Athens; but this he refused to do, and so began the first war between Athens and Philip.
		The Athenian claim to the city was therefore one of the most important matters to be presented by the ambassadors whose mission Aeschines is here describing.
