Dear and Glorious Physician by Taylor Caldwell, one of the queens of historical fiction, tells the story of Saint Luke, the author of the third book of the New Testament. Known properly as Lucanus, he was the stepson of Antioch, a Roman governor. He studied medicine in Alexandria, and his travels throughout the Mediterranean earned him a reputation as one of the world's greatest physicians. Hearing the story of Jesus Christ, he began a spiritual journey, visiting various sites, speaking with Mother Mary, and ultimately writing the Gospel we know him for today. Caldwell, drawing from her own travels in the Holy Land, traces the life of St. Luke, recounting his life with the epic scope it rightly deserves.
