This book manages to maintain a unique balance of Teutonic warrior flavour while still being Christian in character.
William Canton's style of writing is heavily influenced by the then-current enthusiasm for Arthurian Legend and its imagery, as are the illustrations.
This book is a good quality photographic reprint of the 1912 edition produced by J.M. Dent & Company.
A companion book to A Child's Book of Saints.
Age 9 upwards.
Paperback. 333 pp.
