reviewed Saints' Lives and the Rhetoric of Gender: Male and Female in Merovingian Hagiography on November 23, 2013 Saints' Lives and the Rhetoric of Gender
I have found it shockingly hard to find a modern English-language book on Brittany, and this is one of the few out there. It covers the history well, however it is incredibly brief. Still, I have to give it bonus points for being one of the few books out there on the subject!
