He fed the hungry in time of famine, rescued the falsely accused, suffered imprisonment for his faith, and stood firmly for the truth of Christ. Long after his death, his name traveled across seas and centuries until the world transformed him into the beloved figure of Santa Claus.Saint Nicholas: The Generous Bishop Who Became the Spirit of Giving\* tells the true and deeply moving story behind the legend.
