Publisher Description: T hose who delight in Canton's other well-loved children's books, A Child's Book of Saints and A Child's Book of Warriors, will find much to satisfy in his Story of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary. Canton has consulted some of the earliest sources to assemble a tale as rich in historical detail as it is in poetic beauty. Saint Elizabeth's sweetness and generosity are brought to life in these pages, now beautifully retypeset and enhanced with a map showing the locations as they were in 13th century Europe, as well as the breathtaking full-color illustrations of Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale, found in the original 1912 edition. |
