Reflect on the lives of the saints. As mirrors of virtue, the saints serve as models of holiness that encourage us to follow their example according to our own day. Updated and revised to match the newly revised Roman Martyrology, the twelve volumes of Butler's Lives of the Saints correspond to the months of the year; each volume contains entries on saints with feast days in that month. Parishes, schools, and libraries will find Butler's Lives of the Saints an invaluable reference work. Families and individuals will find it serves as a source of devotions and adds to their spirituality and prayer life. Confirmation candidates will be inspired as they choose saints after whom to pattern their lives. Beautifully and solidly bound, this edition will have a long and useful life.
