This prayer book follows the rhythms and seasons of the natural and Christian year as it is observed on Holy Island. More contemplative than the very earthy spirituality of Iona, each day of the week has a special theme: Sunday - resurrection and renewal; Monday - creation; Tuesday - incarnation and peace; Wednesday - the Holy Spirit in mission and healing; Thursday - communit and unity; Friday - with broken people at the Cross; and Saturday - leisure (morning) and the Saints (night).

"David Adam has been captivated by the beauty, wonder and holiness of Lindisfarne since first glimpsing its fairytale castle from the train as a young boy. In this absorbing volume, he shows the island's human face, revealing how Lindisfarne and its people have responded to trial, tribulation and triumph in the course of a long and vibrant history. This tiny place witnessed one of the last stands of the 'British' Celtic peoples against the invading Anglo-Saxons in the 6th century. It has been the home of saints and scholars, most notably St. Aidan and St. Cuthbert, and famously produced the medieval masterpiece known as the "Lindisfarne Gospels". Less familiar to readers, perhaps, will be that the island experienced the first recorded Viking invasion in 793, and was involved in the 17th century Civil War and the 18th century Jacobite Rebellion. Today its ruined 11th century Priory and 16th century Castle - later redesigned by the great English architect Edwin Lutyens - draw pilgrims and visitors from all over the world. Wherever you walk on Lindisfarne, the past impinges on the present ..."--Publisher's description

This book provides an authoritative introduction to the history and archaeology of Lindisfarne, from its earliest occupation to the twenty-first century. Arranged chronologically, specific chapters address prehistoric settlement, the foundation of the early Christian monastery in the seventh century and the story of the monastic community, the cult of Saint Cuthbert, the growth of the village and construction of the island fortifications, and the post-medieval development of the fishing and lime-burning industries. Lindisfarne incorporates the fresh developments in the archaeological study of the growth of the medieval and post-medieval village produced by excavation and and the study of standing buildings, and recent work on the most famous object associated with the island: the Lindisfarne Gospels.
