Reviews

In its original form, this work was a classic statement for a broad English-speaking audience; the publisher recently lightly updated and expanded it, republishing it in 12 volumes. This publication, a concise selection of one saint per day per month through the calendar year, is as welcome as the 12-volume set and as charming, accessible, and thoughtful as Butler's original. For most libraries, especially those that did not purchase the full series. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
