About Philip Paris: Book Talk and Signing

Listed Under Books Events

Following the success of Waterstones' 2024 Scottish Book of the Year 'The Last Witch of Scotland', Philip's latest release tells the extraordinary story of the civil war in Scotland when Covenanters fought kings for the freedom of the Kirk.

With that in mind, it's safe to say Greyfriars Kirk is the perfect setting for you to be introduced to this book!

Make sure to join us and Philip on 25th September at 11am. No ticket required, just simply buy a book from our gift shop on the day!
