  Designed to whet the appetite for the subject, this volume aims to convey in modern terms the stories and legends which surround those who have been singled out for sainthood. Researched from original historic texts, as well as contemporary feature articles and interviews, the book provides a snapshot of the lives of over 60 saints from the UK and Ireland. It includes individuals from all traditions and walks of life - preachers, politicians, scholars, soldiers, hermits and historians - introducing the reader to these exceptional men and women down the centuries.
