ill., ril. A settembre sono previste diverse celebrazioni per il decimo anniversario della proclamazione di Santa Brigida a Patrona dell'Europa, avvenuta con Motu Proprio di Giovanni Paolo II (1° ottobre 1999). Il volume, che in apertura riporta la lettera di proclamazione di Giovanni Paolo II, ripercorre in maniera sintetica quella che è stata la vita e il percorso spirituale della Santa di Svezia, che insieme a Santa Caterina da Siena (di poco posteriore) tanto ha fatto per la Chiesa del tempo e per l'Europa che in quel tempo si andava forgiando attraverso l'affermarsi delle singole nazioni. Il volume, riccamente illustrato, si propone come un libro strenna celebrativa, ma dai ricchi contenuti.
