Summon’s Miscellany of Saints and Sinners is a wonderfully entertaining collection of facts, figures, curiosities, and legends about history’s heroes and villains. Packed with information about heretics, martyrs, false messiahs, flying Franciscans, patron saints, relics, and miraculous interventions, this book will also provide you with answers to some very pressing questions related to saints, such as: * Which saint will help you find your keys?* What might the Fourteen Holy Helpers do for you?* Which saint is known as the "king of beer"?* Who can help if you want sunny weather for a barbeque? And regarding sinners: * Who’s on the list of the world’s 10 worst dictators?* Who tried to sell the Eiffel Tower as scrap metal?* Who’s who in the government of Hades?* Who was the most evil James Bond villain? An amusing, fascinating guide to the best and worst of human nature, this is a book to be dipped into again and again for illumination and inspiration. - from Amzon
