The book Communion Tokens Of The Established Church Of Scotland: Sixteenth, Seventeenth And Eighteenth Centuries by Alexander J. S. Brook is a comprehensive guide to the history and significance of communion tokens used by the Established Church of Scotland during the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different century and the tokens used during that time period.The author provides detailed descriptions of the tokens, including their design, materials, and inscriptions. He also explores the historical and religious context in which the tokens were used, discussing the importance of communion in the Scottish church and the role of tokens in regulating access to the sacrament.In addition to providing a valuable resource for scholars and collectors of Scottish religious artifacts, the book offers insights into the social and cultural history of Scotland during the early modern period. Through the lens of communion tokens, the author sheds light on the complex relationships between church and state, the role of religion in everyday life, and the ways in which material culture reflects and shapes religious beliefs and practices.Overall, Communion Tokens Of The Established Church Of Scotland is a fascinating and informative study of an important aspect of Scottish religious history, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity in Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
