Carla's Reviews > The Saint Who Would Be Santa Claus: The True Life and Trials of Nicholas of Myra

My review depends on what you want from the book. I was hoping for a light-hearted review of some of the St. Nicholas (bishop) stories. There are some of those, but ultimately the book is a very exhaustive compendium of all that has been written about St. Nicholas and which parts are historically legitimate and which are conflated from other stories. I am sure the author took great time and energy to confirm these. Useful to know, but maybe not what you (or I) were looking for in this book.
