Enrich each day with models for Christian living drawn from the authoritative 12 volume Butler’s Lives of the Saints. Adapted into a single volume for daily devotional reading, Butler’s Saint for the Dayfeatures the life of one saint or blessed for each day of the year. Originally published as the New Concise Edition of Butler’s, this revision puts much more emphasis on 20th century figures. The selections also reflect the late John Paul II’s attention to holy men and women throughout the world, especially the Americas.
