I received a free copy of, Saint Illustrated, by Dominic Connolly, from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I have always had a love of Saints, St. Theresa, St. Francis, St. Stephen, St, Patrick, St. Brigid, St. Margaret of Scotland, St. Catherine of Siena, Mother Theresa, and St. John Paul II. I loved this book and the beautiful pictures or statues of the saints.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of Saints Illustrated.

In Catholicism, saints are venerated and held in high regard and esteem. Saints come from all walks of life; from all over the world, some born rich or poor, some lived an impure life, some chose a life of chastity and virginity, but they all have one thing in common. Devotion to God.

Saints Illustrated thoughtfully arranges all the major saints in in chronological order, including Joan of Arc, St Paul, the Apostle who did most to spread Christianity following the death of Christ, to Pope John Paul II, Mother Teresa, and less 'famous' saints such as Zita,

I enjoyed learning about the lesser known saints in Catholicism and what they did to spread the word of God, promote chastity and charity, and live an exemplary life.

The illustrations and artworks came through on my Kindle but I can imagine how stunning they would look in a hard copy.

From the description, I imagine this is a beautifully produced book and a must have for a Catholic household.
