The guide to Mysterious Iona and Staffa

Über

This is a guide to everything supernatural, paranormal, folkloric, eccentric and, above all, mysterious about the island of Iona and the nearby island of Staffa. Containing fairies and martyrs, Celtic gods, telepathy, exorcism and magic, druids, witches, mermaids, demons and saints (and based on the texts both ancient and modern), it is a fascinating introduction to the islands heritage. This is a guide that the armchair adventurer or the on-location visitor can revel in. Comprehensive entries covering Iona's tombstones, simulacra, standing stones, gargoyles, ruins, churches and archaeological curiosities are complemented by more than sixty photographs taken by the author and his wife. The book also includes notes and cross-references to enable the reader to follow up the sources.
