A lively and informative introduction to some 300 men and women from different Christian traditions and different eras who have come to be regarded as holy. We meet them not as spiritual superstars but as real people whose example can inspire us today. Based on recent scholarship which has endeavoured to separate reliable historical facts from unhelpful or exaggerated legends, this popular introductioin to the saints and to their place in the life of the churches today will be welcomed as an essential reference guide.
