The Lives of the Saints, Volume 01 (of 16): January
"The Lives of the Saints, Volume 01 (of 16): January" by S. Baring-Gould is a hagiographic collection first published between 1872 and 1877. This opening volume of a sixteen-part series chronicles the lives of saints whose feast days fall in January. Baring-Gould's ambitious work organizes centuries of Christian tradition into a calendar format, offering readers biographical accounts of holy figures celebrated during the first month of the year. Each volume follows this systematic approach, creating a comprehensive year-long journey through Christian hagiography.
