Focusing on the transformative role of St Dunstan in English church and society, the book explores his journey from education at Glastonbury to becoming Archbishop of Canterbury. It details his exile due to political conflicts, his return under King Edgar, and his significant reforms of monasteries. Beyond his ecclesiastical duties, Dunstan's talents as a craftsman, calligrapher, and musician are highlighted, alongside his lasting influence on the coronation service and his reputation for miracles, which solidified his legacy.
