The Illustrated Lives of the Saints Boxed Set contains both volumes of this impressive collection that includes, for each day of the year, a short biography of a Saint or Blessed along with a prayer. The first volume of Saints' lives is in accord with the 2004 Roman Martyrology and the United States liturgical calendar, while the second familiarizes the reader with the extraordinary and sometimes surprising lives of lesser-known Saints and Blesseds. Each durably bound volume of Illustrated Lives of the Saints contains a wealth of full-color illustrations.Both volumes have a single ribbon marker that makes it easy to keep one's place in this rich treasury of Saints' lives.
