Cliff Castles and Cave Dwellings of Europe

S. (Sabine) Baring-Gould

1834–1924

A Victorian clergyman with a gift for storytelling, he wrote across an astonishing range of subjects, from novels and folklore to hymn texts and travel writing. He is still especially remembered as the writer of “Onward, Christian Soldiers” and as a vivid collector of local legends and odd histories.
