Noémi – A Story of Rock-Dwellers [EPUB ebook] 

Sabine Baring-Gould (1834–1924) was an English hagiographer, antiquarian, novelist, and eclectic scholar. His bibliography encompasses a wide range of subjects spanning from theology to folklore. Baring-Gould is perhaps most widely remembered for penning the lyrics to the hymn ‘Onward, Christian Soldiers, ‘ but his literary contributions extend far beyond this singular hymnody. His curiosity about the world and its various cultures fueled his fiction, such as evidenced in ‘Noémi – A Story of Rock-Dwellers’ which showcases his adeptness in creating rich, evocative narratives set against the backdrop of historical and geological phenomena. Baring-Gould’s storytelling was often informed by his keen interest in anthropology, history, and theology, all of which are interwoven into the fabric of his narratives. He was a prolific writer, with a bibliography that included both fiction and non-fiction, with notable works such as ‘The Book of Were-Wolves’ and his many volumes of ‘Lives of the Saints.’ His literary style often reflected his diverse interests and profound knowledge, which he conveyed in an accessible yet scholarly manner. His contributions to literature and the diversity of subjects he tackled in his lifetime have made him a notable figure in the annals of British letters.
