About this book

Stories of the Rose: The Making of the Rosary in the Middle Ages by Winston-Allen, Anne. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780271016313.

For centuries, the rosary has been one of the most popular expressions of religious devotion among Roman Catholics, but its origins remain obscure. Stories of the Rose presents a compelling and readable history of the rosary in its formative years. It explores the many spiritual, literary, and artistic dimensions of the rosary and explains how and why it became so popular on the eve of the Protestant Reformation.
