Ten Years' Conflict

“The Ten Years' Conflict, Volume I: Being the History of the Disruption of the Church of Scotland” by Robert Buchanan offers a detailed historical account of the events leading up to the Disruption of 1843. This pivotal moment in Scottish history saw a significant portion of the Church of Scotland secede to form the Free Church of Scotland, driven by disputes over patronage and the role of the state in church affairs.

Buchanan meticulously examines the decade-long struggle, providing insights into the theological, social, and political factors that fueled the conflict. This volume provides a crucial understanding of the complex dynamics at play within 19th-century Scotland and the lasting impact of the Disruption on the nationâ€(TM)s religious landscape.
