Celtic Saints

The Ireland of the Dark Ages inspired strange and marvelous legends that intertwined history and fancy. Today these legends live on in the stories of wandering saints who traveled throughout the British Isles and Europe. From St. Patrick, who chased the snakes from Ireland, to Brigid, the wise woman of Kildare, this book tells the stories of 30 saints, with each depicted in full-color illustrations reminiscent of stained glass windows.
