The Book Of Saints And Heroes: Large Print Edition for a better reading experience (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783988685124)

Including a detailed biographical anntotation on Andrew Lang's life and achievements. *** From the beloved editor of the Fairy Books comes a different kind of treasure - tales not of enchanted kingdoms, but of real men and women whose courage, faith, and sacrifice made them legendary. First published in 1912, Andrew Lang's The Book of Saints and Heroes brings together the extraordinary lives of figures from the early Christian world and beyond - martyrs who faced lions without flinching, missionaries who carried their convictions to the ends of the earth, and soldiers of faith who stood firm when empires crumbled around them. Lang tells these stories with the same gift for narrative that made his fairy tales timeless: vivid, warm, and utterly compelling. This is not hagiography in the dry, dutiful sense. These are stories - full of drama, peril, and human feeling. Whether you come to these pages for history, for inspiration, or simply for a great read, you will find saints who feel startlingly alive, and heroes who remind us what it means to stand for something larger than oneself. A perfect introduction for young readers and a rediscovered pleasure for adults, this reprint restores a forgotten classic to its rightful place on the shelf. *** The series "Large Print Reader's Choice" features classic books with a font size of at least 16 points. This font size is not only highly recommended and useful for visually impaired readers, but generally improves letter and word recognition and reading comprehension. Large print books make your reading experience a more satisfying one.
