Book Reviews of Dictionary of Saints
Book Review: It's okay.
Summary: 3 Stars
It has the largest listing of saints that I've seen in a book, BUT it has a lot of stupid errors in it, like typos... or just inaccuracies. For instance, in the entry for Bl. Margaret Pole, it says she tutored Henry VIII's daughter "Anne," when he had no daughter named Anne. Pole was the confirmation sponser / godmother of Princess Mary. Annoying things like that make me give this book three stars. The text is kind of dry. It's a good place to start but cross-check everything you read in it with your own research.
