Publisher's Synopsis
The Monks of Iona is a book written by John Stewart McCorry in 1871 as a response to Iona, a book written by the Duke of Argyll. The book provides an in-depth look at the history of the Monks of Iona, who were an important part of the Christian church in Scotland during the medieval period. McCorry delves into the various aspects of the monks' lives, including their daily routines, religious practices, and the impact they had on the wider community. He also addresses the criticisms made by the Duke of Argyll in his book, offering a rebuttal to the claims made about the monks' practices and beliefs. The Monks of Iona is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in Scotland and the role played by monastic communities in the medieval period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
