Summary

"In Saints, historian and artist Amy Jeffs illuminates the lives of medieval saints, drawing on official biographies, vernacular romances, artworks, and poetry to tell of wayfaring monks, oak-felling missionaries, and mighty martyrs. Organized by feast month, this enchanting compendium presents the legends of Brigid, Patrick, Nicholas, and Catherine of Alexandria, as well as saints whose stories are less well-known (Ia, Mungo, Scoithin, and Euphrosyne). Combining history and myth, tradition and invention, Jeffs offers transporting tales of demons and dragons, men raised by wolves, and women who commune with birds"-- Provided by publisher.
