The Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs, and Principal Saints January, February, March

Butler's great work, The Lives of the Fathers, Martyrs and Other
Principal Saints ("Butler's Lives"), the result of thirty years study
(first published in four volumes, London, 1756-1759), has passed through many
editions and translations (best edition, including valuable notes, Dublin, 12
vols. 1779-1780). It is a popular and compendious reproduction of the Acta
Sanctorum, exhibiting great industry and research, and is in all respects the
best compendium of Acta in English.
