Sabine Baring-Gould (1834–1924)
Sabine Baring-Gould (1834–1924) was an Anglican priest, antiquarian, and prolific English writer. He is remembered for hymns such as "Onward, Christian Soldiers," for folklore studies, and for a large multi-volume Lives of the Saints. His scholarship mixes parish piety, local history, and Victorian antiquarianism; listing him is not an endorsement of every critical judgment.
