A Way to Whithorn: A Guide to the Whithorn Pilgrim Way Through the Machars of Galloway by Andrew R.M. Patterson
The long peninsula of the Machars of Galloway leads to Whithorn where tradition holds that Bishop Ninian began the earliest centre of Celtic Christianity in AD 398. This book is a guide to the byways of the Machars which avoids busy roads and leads the traveller through one of the least spoilt areas of Europe. The journey is more than mere miles through moors and wild headlands above the sea - it can also be an inner journey of discovery and a deeply healing experience.
