A Procession of Saints is a collection of essays about twelve British saints, one for each month, plus a thirteenth to grow on. Admittedly, I didn't read the thirteenth one, because Marie of the Incarnation's biography happens to include an episode of maternal abandonment (on her part) that I have always found nauseating. But the main part of the book is sound. Since each chapter is about a saint who has a feast day in that particular month, there are several nicely obscure ones that you don't normally bump into in these kind of books. But then Anselm of Canterbury and Thomas Becket are there as well. Brodrick is an historian, so the book also stands out for having a great deal of interesting footnotes and useful sources. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in the history of British saints or interesting saints lives. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
