THE SAINTS OF CORNWALL
1500 Years Of Christian Landscape
By Catherine Rachel John
Author writes of the Celtic Christians, mostly from Wales and Ireland from the sixth century, who are commemorated in the dedications of churches and the names of places where they lived, and of saints and other notable Christians from later ages and varied places, who are celebrated in Cornwall.
The accounts are set within their historical context: early church, medeval, later, and modern times.
Readers will have a living understanding of the landscape of Cornwall as they walk in it after 1500 years of history, and when they encounter the names of such diverse men and women as St. Petroc and St. Endelienta, St. James, Billy Bray, Robert Stephen Hawker and many more.
