Description
From St Columba meeting a talking squirrel, to St Magnus of Orkney helping someone to win a dice game, this book delves into the strange and wonderful world of medieval saints, and how they formed part of Scotland’s cultural beliefs prior to the Reformation. These men and women crossed the threshold between this world and the other with ease, and their stories are as much part of the folklore landscape of Scotland as selkies, ghosts and fairy folk.
