Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Past: The Organ of the Ui Ceinnsealaigh Historical Society; December, 1921
The Vie de S. Vouga occupies pages 222 to 224 of the 1901 edition of Le Grand's work; and the Bollandist Life is nothing more than a Latin rendering, closely literal, of Le Grand's text. The solitary original source of information, therefore, respecting St. Vouga is the volume written by Friar Albert le Grand. The matter of the Life is legendary in the extreme but as legends have a special value of their own, and - when well authenticated - are by no means destitute of historic meaning, I may be permitted here to summarise the St. Vouga legend, in so far as it bears on my immediate subject.
