 The
Road of Life
In his 13 years as Vicar, David Adam welcomed over 1 million
people to the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. These pilgrims reflected
every mood and attitude to life. Some radiated a presence, others
were too busy to stop. Many were collectors of holy places as
some would collect stamps! Some were awestruck at what was around
them, others closeted themselves in and never saw the Island.
All had something to teach. As David Adam tells their stories,
he reveals the inner searching and longing common to us all,
and helps us reflect on how we personally are dealing with our
journey through life.
 100
Days on Holy Island: A Writer's Exile
This volume is an account of one man's self-imposed exile to
a remote island off the coast of North-East England. Eschewing
the usual historical or religious portrayal, Mortimer gives
an account of a confirmed ubanite in a small, tight-knit community
cut off twice daily by the tides. Throwing himself into island
life, he explores the landscape, people and myths that surround
this remote "cradle of Christianity". He helped in
the local school, worked on the land, was voluntarily cut off
in the island refuge box and spent three tides isolated on the
exposed outcrop of St Cuthbert's Island.

and ruled at this time, and how and why this great book was
created.
