St George ; Knight, Martyr, Patron Saint and Dragonslayer
Author(s): Giles Morgan
St George is a figure that bridges many worlds. At the heart of the myths and legends surrounding this English icon lies the story of an Early Christian Martyr persecuted by the Roman Empire. But England is only one country to have adopted this legendary soldier saint as their patron. Other countries including Germany, Armenia, Hungary, Portugal and Malta have all claimed him as their own. In ST GEORGE, Giles Morgan explores the history and relevance of this most popular icon across the globe.
