"This fully-updated fifth edition features concise accounts of the lives, cults, and artistic associations of saints from the famous and obscure, the rich and poor, the academic and the uneducated. New entries include the Martyrs of Korea, Mexico, and Vietnam, as well as the recently canonized such as Edith Stein, Padre Pio, and Josemaria Escriva. The standard one-volume reference work in the field, this dictionary will delight both specialists and general readers."--Jacket.
