Kenneth Steven grew up in the heart of Highland Scotland, but from earliest childhood days he spent the summer days on the Atlantic coast and in the islands of the Hebrides. At the heart of those islands lies Iona, the place St. Columba came to from Ireland to build his monastery. Kenneth Steven is first and always a poet, and this collection gathers fifty of his best poems from across thirty years, works that speak of wild beauty, truth, love, and sanctity.
