"Lady of the Well, the Forge, and the Green Earth, I seek you. Brigid, I Seek You"

Brigid is many things to many people. In this enticing book, Courtney Weber offers up a wide-ranging exposition and celebration of all things Brigid, who is arguably the most popular figure in Celtic mythology and religion.
