Now a rare and sought-after book

Traces the history & development of Celtic Paganism & Christianity specifically in Wales, but also in relation to the rest of the British Isles including Ireland, from the Iron Age to the present. A study of the transition between the pagan religions & Christianity & how the early Church, in the Celtic countries struggled with & later absorbed the earlier forms of spirituality, clearly seen in the development of Celtic Christianity when pagan & Christian beliefs co-existed, albeit in an uneasy & sometimes violent relationship. Also covers how the Roman Catholic version of Christianity arrived in England at the end of the 6th century & its affect on the Celtic Church; how Celtic Christianity was suppressed & the effect this was to have on the history & theology of the Church in the Middle Ages. The influence of Celtic Christianity on the Arthurian legends & the Grail romances is explored, as is the resurgence of interest in Celtic Christianity today.

Review: If you are a pagan, who was once a Christian, especially Catholic OR if you are an Irish or Celtic pagan who just wants to understand how perhaps beliefs came to be what they are, and also the fairy faith as a dual faith in the British Isle this is a wonderful book to read.

Having been a catholic for 52 years and then becoming a pagan, I did have some questions as to how people in the British Isle have “let their faith” be taken away. and this book allowed me to see that it was not taken away. it may have evolved into what is called a dual faith. Something that is hard for us to understand here in America. I salute Mr Howard. I enjoyed and learned from this book
