Reviews

[Leslie Wexler · Rating 2 out of 5]

Best approach to a viking army demanding money? Just lay down all your weapons and let them torture you into sainthood.

[Abby · Rating 5 out of 5]

Interesting thirteenth century hagiography that discusses the life of Edmund Rich from his education, miracles and time as Archbishop of Canterbury.
