    1. [AYR] New Book
    2. Friends, I hope you will excuse this act of self-promotion, but it does pertain this list. I wanted to let you know that my recently published book, The Last Presbyterian? - Remembering the Faith of My Forebears, is now "up" on Amazon, and though currently listed as "temporarily out of stock" you can place orders: http://www.amazon.com/The-Last-Presbyterian-Remembering-Forebears/dp/1620328704/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1370705380&sr=8-4&keywords=kenneth+cuthbe rtson The book deals extensively with the religious heritage of Fenwick, in particular, but also with the history of the developments in the particular strain of radical Presbyterianism found in the Kyle and Cunningham parts of Ayrshire from "the Lollards of Kyle" ca. 1500 down through the Reformation and Covenanter periods, and on into the time of Burns and the 19th century emigration / diaspora. A significant factor in the writing of it was to help descendants of these Ayrshire folk understand the religious milieu of our ancestors. The focus of my PhD work, some 25 years ago, was on the Scottish Reformation and the ongoing developments in Presbyterianism throughout the 17th century. Wishing you all the best, Ken Cuthbertson Albuquerque, NM
