This little book will make you appreciate a great saint.

Cuthbert, who for some years was both monk and bishop of Lindisfarne is obviously a great source of inspiration for writer David Adam, who himself was vicar of that same Holy Island for some 13 years. Having researched his subject well, the author presents us with a fascinating and evocative story, which draws us into the life and times of this important Christian figure.
