The Last Stronghold of the Pure Gospel

An expression of the passionate religious feeling of a community portrayed until now as lunatic, bigoted Sabbatarians, concerned only with the suppression of joy and the threat of hell-fire. It is the story of an island where Christianity in its purest Calvinist form is right at the centre of life, a story of fervent devotion, of pre-destination and the certainty of grace for God's elect. This is Puritan England of 300 years ago, still alive today in the Outer Hebrides.
