As a soldier of the Roman Empire, Martin gave away his cloak to a beggar, only to discover the beggar was Christ. As bishop of Tours, France, Martin lived in a hut and cared for the poor. Through this charming story, follow St. Martin from his childhood through his army career to becoming a bishop famous for his wisdom and humility.
"Who gives away their cloak in the dead of winter? Who marches into battle without sword or shield? Discover the simplicity and daring of Martin of Tours, who gave away his coat and his sword to follow Christ. A tale vibrantly illustrated and clearly told."
--Joshua C. Benson, Catholic University; coauthor, with Margaret Carney, OSF, of Francis of Assisi: A Meditation on His Life and Writings
