Presbyterians in Ireland, An illustrated history – Laurence Kirkpatrick

P
resbyterians in Ireland is a necessary and welcome publication. In essence, this is the story of God's Word as Truth in the life of The Presbyterian Church in Ireland. It is encyclopaedic in breadth, biopic in intensity, informative in thrust and exciting in prospect, authored by our own history man at Union, Professor Laurence Kirkpatrick; his expertise and enthusiasm washes the whole work. We commend it warmly to a Presbyterian and wider readership....

Rev Dr R.E.H. Uprichard
Moderator of the General Assembly 2005-06

This is an attractive illustrated history of the Irish Presbyterians, who they were, where they came from, their identity and ethos, their theological and political conflicts, their outstanding personalities, their congregations and churches, what they have done and are doing at home and abroad in their obedience to Christ and His Gospel. I commend it to a wide readership.

Rev Dr Finlay Holmes
