Anotácia knihy

Harry Reid celebrates the spiritual beauty of Scotland and casts a canny eye over some ever-controversial issues such as witchcraft, sectarianism, the Clearances and the Disruption. Perhaps most amazing of all is the story of the Covenant - welcomed in an orgy of national fervour in 1638, in one of the most amazing mass endorsements in world history - yet just two generations later the last remaining Covenanters were a ragged and desperate band of outlaws, hunted mercilessly across the moors of south-west Scotland. Scotland's Christianity always mixed with politics, and was a key part of our national identity ...until the modern era, that is. Now Scotland is a secular country, with religion confined to the margins. Can Christianity be revived in Scotland, or is it dead and buried for ever? Harry Reid has some controversial and perhaps surprising answers. In a fast-paced and enthralling epic celebration of Scotland's spiritual heritage, this amazing book looks at the Isles, literature, the differences between Edinburgh and Glasgow, the Disruption, Calvinism, Margaret Thatcher, The Declaration of Arbroath, The National Covenant, amazing church buildings and some little-known and very special spiritual sites, spiritual leaders through history, politics, kings and queens, little-known influential women, religious revivals, Celtic Christianity, Scotland's future - and many other elements of the diverse essence of spiritual Scotland.
