The Valentine's Day Book

Simon Webb

Who was Saint Valentine, and how did he become the patron saint of lovers? Is it true that Valentine's Day originated in a bawdy pagan festival? If it started in the Middle Ages, then how was the unfortunate Queen Anne of Bohemia involved? These and other questions are examined by author (and incurable romantic) Simon Webb in this entertaining book, which concludes with a convincing theory about how February 14th became a festival of romance.
