Little Pictorial Lives of the Saints, Volume 3 (July-September)

For over a century, this volume has served as a spiritual companion for Catholic households, offering a saint for every day from July through September. John Gilmary Shea compiled these lives from Butler's celebrated work and other approved sources, then enriched the collection with American saints recognized by the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore. Each entry presents the saint's story alongside a reflection meant for that particular day, creating a rhythm of devotional reading that connects the calendar to the communion of saints. The reader moves through martyred missionaries, continental holy men and women, and the uniquely American saints who shaped the faith in the United States. This is not a reference book to be consulted but a daily practice to be lived, offering moral examples and spiritual intercessors for every season of the year.
