Lives Of The Saints (1883) (ISBN 143714246X)

A Daily Reading on the Saints for Adults:
"Lives of the Saints" was originally titled as "Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs and Other Principal Saints". Its author was Father Alban Butler, who lived from 1735-1763. It is, as the original title indicates, a book mostly of the priests, bishops, cardinals and popes of the church who were saints as well as of the martyrs and other saints. It was written during the 30 years that he was a professor of philosophy and theology, and was written for adult readers. It contains a concise but good biography on about 400 saints, at least one on his/her feast day for each day of the year. It has a 29 page appendix of more recent saints by a more recent author.

Projects:
Great book for kids religon projects! And confermation names

Lives of the Saints:
Simply put...this is a great resource. It is concise and interesting information compiled in one book that we found fascinating. A great reference book and the profiles will whet your appetite to know even more on the subjects. But we read it because it's just plain interesting!

Lives Of The Saints:
the text of The Lives Of The Saints that I received is in excellent condition. It appears to be brand new. The book arrived promptly (within the first eight days of having placed the order). I appreciate not only the speed of the delivery but also the excellence of the quality of the text that I received.

love it!:
I love this book. I read it almost every night. It's awesome to have a saint to intercede for you each night. It's also great to see the suffering and endurance of our past Christians and to witness to the 2,000-plus-year-old history of our church.
