Following the bestselling Advent Book of Days, Gregory Cameron
turns his artistic, literary and pastoral skills to the Easter
story, introducing us to the characters who populate the
crucifixion and resurrection. He explores 25 characters from the
stories of Lent, Holy Week and Easter from the perspectives of
scripture, history and legend and asks how they can enrich our
practice of faith today. As well as the familiar figures - Christ
himself, Mary his mother, Mary Magdalene, the disciples, Pilate,
the soldiers, and the thieves crucified with Jesus, he explores
aspects of the story not found in scripture, such as Veronica
wiping the face of Jesus as he carried his cross. Considering
biblical accounts alongside folk legends, he also explores the rich
traditions that have built up around the cross and the crown of
thorns, as well as tales of how the robin got its red breast, or
what happened to the disciples after the ascension, creating a
richly textured guide to the Easter season.
