Six Months in the Apennines is a travelogue written by Margaret Stokes, chronicling her journey through Italy in search of traces of the Irish saints who had once lived there. The book details her travels through the Apennine Mountains, where she visits various monasteries, churches, and other religious sites, seeking out connections to the Irish saints who had once lived and worked in the area.Throughout her journey, Stokes encounters a variety of people, from local villagers to scholars and historians, who help her piece together the stories and legends of the Irish saints. She also reflects on her own spiritual journey, drawing inspiration from the lives of these early Christian missionaries and their dedication to spreading the gospel.The book is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of Irish and Italian history and culture, as well as a testament to the enduring influence of the Irish saints on the wider Christian world. Stokes' writing is engaging and vivid, bringing to life the landscapes, people, and traditions of the places she visits. Overall, Six Months in the Apennines is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, Irish culture, or travel writing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
