Wonderful & Inspiring Gift Book

Not just for Catholics, this is truly a beautifully printed, gorgeously illustrated, and intelligently written book. I was given this book as a gift and I treasure it. The "Saint-a-Day" format concisely details the lives of individual saints and intrigues rather than bores, unlike many other books in this genre. The prints--well-reproduced copies of religious paintings, daybooks, etc.--chosen for this book are out-of-this-world (no pun intended). This would undoubtedly make a great gift for your favorite Catholic, but I am not religious and I found it inspiring and lovely anyway. It would make a wonderful book for any art-lover, spirituality-seeker, or anyone who just relishes a beautifully illustrated and well-written, informative book.
