Try the Lives Of The Saints. I don't know author or publisher, but it
was must reading back when I was in Catholic high school. You'll
probably have to look for an edition that's at least 15 years old,
because sometime in the last 20 years I think St. Christopher was
'demoted' from sainthood, along with a number of other saints whose
existence is dubious (St. Philomena also went by the wayside then).

The best place to look would probably be at a Catholic high school
library.
