The Flora of the Sacred Nativity

An attempt at collecting the legends and ancient dedications of plants connected in popular tradition with the Life of Our Blessed Lord from His Nativity to the flight into Egypt, preceded by an essay upon "The Flora Sacra," There is such a sacredness about nature and perhaps it is especially felt with regard to flowers. Their beauty, freshness, simplicity, their remarkable power to offer solace, joy, companionship, and love all point to their fundamental placement amongst the very highest things of this world. This unique publication of Kegan Paul in 1900 is reprinted by popular demand for its revelation to be available to all.
