The Missionary Life: Saints and the Evangelisation of Europe 400-1050 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780582312135)

Missionaries were not only the agents of change, but also some of Europe's first historians. This uniquely wide-ranging account tells the history of the christianisation of Western Europe through investigation of the lives of the missionaries. Unravelling unreliable and partial sources, Ian Wood produces a compelling survey of European evangelisation, and brings a remote age to life.
