1928. This volume was adapted and enlarged from Father Anthony Touron's "Histoire Abregee des Premiers Disciples de Saint Dominique." Father O'Daniel was faithful, as well as tireless, in his chosen field of labor; and he deserved well of Catholic historical literature. This product of his pen not only maintains the high standard of his other works, but also filled a long-felt want in the English language. It makes delightful, enriching and instructive reading. The lives of over fifty of Saint Dominic's disciples are sketched in these pages. Without exception they lived holy lives, toiled with all their strength for the salvation of souls and died saintly deaths.
