Download or read book Fife Genesis of the Kingdom written by Adrian C Grant and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2024-05-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many remarkable things about Fife's origins never understood before are set out in detail here – a must read for all Fifers and those with an interest in the County. Drawn together for the first time: The name “Fife” has a complete explanation. Shakespeare's story of Macduff is refuted and the correct narrative offered. Why “St Regulus” was invented and the true story of the arrival of the Bones of St Andrew. Evidence of Kenneth mac Alpin's genocide in Fife is laid bare. St Serf's true story is told – so different from what so many believe. A proper explanation is given for the many Viking place names in Fife. Corrected explanations for many place names (including Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline) are given for the first time. And much much more. The book also foreshadows several centenaries which fall in the period 2025-2030 in the hope that they will be celebrated appropriately.

Book excerpt: Fife has always been one of Scotland's most distinctive counties. Though never a 'kingdom' in its own right, its geographical position as a peninsular county between the firths of Tay and Forth has helped maintain its self-contained identity through the ages, and even today Fifers are notoriously proud of their varied and beautiful corner of Scotland. Although the county has played a central role in Scotland's history since earliest times, its period of greatest historical prominence was during the pre-Industrial age. St Andrews was one of the country's great ecclesiastical centres from the tenth century onwards, as well as the home of Scotland's first university (1412). During Stewart times, Dunfermline and Falkland were two of Scotland's most important towns. Not surprisingly for a county of such extraordinary historical resonance, Fife contains a huge number of churches, castles and houses that witnessed events that have quite literally shaped the nation.In this book, Raymond Lamont Brown introduces the reader to these places and those associated with them - from the great abbeys of Lindores and Balmerino and the major towns of St Andrews, Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy to the beautiful villages of the East Neuk and the islands of the Firth of Forth. In addition, he also introduces some of the less familiar details from Fife's to produce the most complete introduction to this fascinating county currently available.
