by John J. Delaney

This specially abridged edition of the popular - and weighty - Dictionary of Saints features some 1,500 entries, of varying lengths, on every saint or blessed that we would like to know about.  John J. Delaney has carefully selected from his original master tome of 5,000 biographies stories of those eternal pillars of faith whose lives and accomplishments have transformed the world.  All in all, this is a portable work for easy reference, private reading/meditation, or sharing with family and friends.
