About This Book
A revised and expanded calendar presents concise daily notices of holy men and women associated with Scotland, recording feast days (usually indicated by date of death), brief biographies, local dedications, place-name survivals and liturgical observances. Each entry summarizes surviving traditions and documentary evidence, cites key sources such as medieval breviaries, parish records and earlier calendars, and offers emendations or additions where records permit. Organized month by month, the work emphasizes geographic links, church dedications, holy wells, and the limits of the surviving material while aiming to make accessible the principal names and cults remembered in Scottish ecclesiastical history.
