Description

During the thousand years and more that separated the final collapse of the Romano-British civilization from the Reformation of the 16'th' century, the British landscape filled with sites that still remind us that this was once a land of saints and martyrs, shrines and pilgrimages. This evocative guide reveals the meaning of this landscape, so rich in holiness, by exploring the lives and legends of the saints who made it. In the process, it transports us back in time to a place where evil spirits, visions, and miracles were commonplace. In words and photographs, The Way and the Light enables the reader to experience the sense of sacred that still permeates Britain's holiest places.
