Jón Birgir Pétursson prepared the printing. Albert Guðmundsson writes the foreword. \u003cbr\u003eThere are probably few Icelanders who have not heard of Reverend Robert Jack, so famous has he become. However, fewer people probably know his story, the story of the young city dweller who was literally \"stranded\" in Iceland when the nations of the world were involved in a world war. The young lad was on his way home from soccer training in the Westman Islands, and used the time here to attend the theology department of the University of Iceland, despite the fact that he was not fluent in Icelandic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Later, Robert Jack became a country priest in remote areas of Iceland, while maintaining close ties with his homeland, Scotland, and traveling to many other countries and experiencing many things that he has recorded in this book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn the book, the reader is introduced to a remarkable adventure, a remarkable life, of a man who refuses to take over his father's thriving business in his hometown, but instead serves his God in a small congregation up in Iceland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Reverend Robert is a man who speaks frankly about things, he is human, wants to get to know all stages of human life, and tells about his encounters with an incredibly diverse range of people in this book.","brand":"Bókin.is","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51125873901896,"sku":"OSC-23679","price":2900.0,"currency_code":"ISK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/4029\/9848\/files\/74783.jpg?v=1754817442","url":"https:\/\/www.bokin.is\/en\/products\/sera-robert-jack-74783-23679","provider":"bokin.is","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
