Iona Images and Reflections (Downloadable book)

Not just another tourist book. Something different.

Full-colour photographs of the Abbey, Iona’s white sand beaches, the pilgrimage around the island, seabirds, highland cattle, tracks and roads, boats and nets, kitchen pots, footprints in the sand, cotton grass bending in the breeze, soaring wild geese – and people, living and working and worshipping on the island, and visiting as pilgrims, guests and day-trippers. Through this book you can revisit Iona or go there for the first time.

With accompanying short reflections, prayers, poems and stories.

Photographs by Iona Community member and photographer David Coleman, and Anja Grosse-Uhlmann, who lives on the island.

Words by various well-known Iona Community writers, including Jan Sutch Pickard, Peter Millar, Tom Gordon, Ruth Burgess and Neil Paynter.
