Butler’s Lives of the Saints
Paul Burns (Royal Victoria Hospital Northern Ireland),REV Fr Alban Butler
This new concise Butler’s provides an essay on one saint for each day of the month, using the twelve-volume full edition of Butler’s Lives of the Saints as a source. Selections are made from both categories of Saint and *Blessed - - canonized and beatified, allowing for the increasing proportion of women and of new- and third-world holy people.
Completely rewritten in a popular style, this volume also has more *spiritual - appeal than the full edition. A prayer and intercessory reflection is included after each entry, which lend themselves to family or small-group meditation as well as to individual devotion. The volume also suggests baptismal/confirmation names for the day’s commemorations or for inclusion in prayers.
Paul Burns is the general editor of theButler’s Lives of the Saints series published by Liturgical Press.
