Father Alban Butler’s Lives of the Saints is one of the most well-known and well-loved Catholic books. It has been a perpetual best-seller and a supply of edifying knowledge for over two-hundred years!

Many have even said that Lives of the Saints is the only book to rank immediately after the Bible and The Imitation of Christ as the most important, popular, and authoritative work of Catholic literature.

Father Butler’s style is uniquely reverent and prayerful. For each day of the year, he includes a saint and lesson that helps us imitate the saints and their virtues. Reading these lessons and stories will help you to not only know the saints, but to become one.

This version does not include any edits that have been made to Father Butler’s work in the past. Instead, it showcases all of his original brilliant work and his classic style. Additions have been made to include more modern saints, such as St. Catherine Labouré, St. Thérèse of the Little Flower, and Pope St. Pius X in keeping with Father Butler’s holy and prayerful style.

“The saints are like the stars. In his providence Christ conceals them in a hidden place that they may not shine before others when they might wish to do so. Yet they are always ready to exchange the quiet of contemplation for the works of mercy as soon as they perceive in their heart the invitation of Christ.” 

– St. Anthony of Padua

    The Best Saints A Day

    Posted by Rachael on Mar 20th 2025

    I had searched so much for a Saint a Day book for my children that didn't have clearly heretical teachings in it or made up saints. This was the first one I found and, I tell you, I just about cried when I did, I was so happy. You know what I loved at first glance? The product pictures told you every saint they would give, so you could make a solid decision. No one else did that. I do sort of wish they'd included pictures, but it's not deal breaker (obviously, since I bought it). Highly, highly recommend!!

    Gift

    Posted by THERESA H. on Mar 30th 2023

    This was a gift for a new Catholic. She has made no comment on it yet. However I chose this so she could learn about any different saints.

    As Catholics, we need to stay close to those who gave their lives for our faith.

    Provides period of time lived,

    Posted by Barbara S. on Sep 19th 2022

    Provides period of time lived, a little of family and contributions helping to earn sainthood. Just enough info to be able to acknowledge and perhaps seek a biography for more information on your favorites
