Description
Columba Pilgrim, Priest and Patron Saint
This biography explores the life and legacy of St Columba, one of the most important figures in the early history of the British Isles. From his noble birth to his influential roles as abbot, scholar, and missionary, this book examines Columba's achievements and their enduring impact.
Drawing on contemporary sources and modern research, the book sheds new light on Columba's involvement with kings in Ireland and northern Britain, and his role in shaping a powerful federation of monasteries that preserved his memory for centuries.
