Saint Leander, Archbishop of Seville describes the life of Leander,
who brought the Catholic faith to Spain in the late sixth century,
becoming a saint after his death in c. 600 AD. Despite inheriting
great wealth and his sister's exposure to high society, Leander
became a monk and persuaded his sister to give up wealth and
opportunities for marriage in order to become a nun. Detailing how
he persuaded her to join a convent and his celebration of his
country's acceptance of the true faith, this book provides a new
perspective of Leander's Byzantine parents and two brothers,
Fulgentius and Isidore. When besieged by the Arian king, Liuvigild,
Leander's parents and sister escaped to Carthage. Later in life,
Leander taught Isidore to take over after him in Seville.
