Jura:
Language and Landscape
By Gary
McKay
Price: £15.00
The
Isle of Jura is, nowadays, home to only a few hundred people
yet every corner of this dramatic landscape is steeped in the
stories and legends of those who have lived there in the past.
The "Paps" of Jura dominate the seascape for miles
around yet the island, with no direct ferry link with the Scottish
mainland, is familiar to relatively few. This new book, featuring
more than fifty photographs of the island, will introduce you
to both the its wide open - and "empty" - spaces and
its more intimate corners. Gary McKay has illustrated his remarkably
detailed images with the traditional stories linked with each
location.

So
Strange a Monster as a Jesuiste - The Society of Jesus in Sixteenth
Century Scotland
By Michael
Yellowlees
Price: £18.99 (HB)
AVAILABLE: NEW BOOK
The
Jesuits played an important role in the preservation of the
Catholic faith in Scotland from the time of its first mission
to Ireland and Scotland in 1541 until the accession of James
VI to the English throne in 1603. Twenty years later, following
Nicholas de Gouda’s mission to Mary, Queen of Scots, in
1562 there was a significant influx of Scottish recruits though
it was a further twenty years before a formal Scottish mission
was established.
