"Saints Preserved is not a stuffy historical account or pious index of which relics are where. Craughwell has a marvelous sense of humor that shines in his breezy - and fascinating - descriptions of the relics, their provenance and the relic-enthusiast subculture, if you will&rdquo; &ndash; Cathleen Falsani, The Huffington Post&#160;&ldquo;Craughwell&rsquo;s exhaustive catalogue extends through the Eastern and Roman churches to include items referenced in scripture; it relates their histories and known locations, and provides entertaining yet respectful hagiographies of the men and women whose faithful lives have inspired such reverent interest in all they have left behind. This is a marvelously-researched resource that should become a classic entry to a seeker&rsquo;s spiritual library, and yes, I do recommend it!&rdquo; &ndash; Elizabeth Scalia, The Anchoress blog"Long before there were cameras and videos to record for posterity, relics had become the visible reminder of great, heroic and holy lives&mdash;remembrances of heroes of the faith. Saints Preserved: An Encyclopedia of Relics gives an account of the lives of those heroes and provides renewed inspiration for Christians everywhere who face many of the challenges that were a part of the lives of the saints." &mdash;Cardinal Donald Wuerl, co-author of The Mass and author of The Catholic Way"Relics are an often&#160;misunderstood part of the Catholic devotional life. Derided as either superstitious or just plain 'gross,' they are in fact an important reminder of the physicality of the saints.&#160;The saints were not mythical creatures or legendary personages, but flesh-and-blood&#160;men and women&#160;who walked the earth, ate&#160;and drank,&#160;wore clothes, wrote letters, and lived entirely human lives. Thomas Craughwell's new book&#160;provides readers with&#160;a comprehensive guide to&#160;the most&#160;important relics in the church and where they can be found, and venerated.&#160;His book&#160;is simply one of a kind." &mdash;James Martin, SJ, author of My Life with the Saints and The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything."Honoring relics was one of the distinguishing marks of early Christianity. A practice rooted in Scripture, it was a universally popular devotion. Thomas Craughwell helps us recover this important element of our tradition. He shares a fascination born of love, the deep familial love that made a family of the first-century Church, and can renew our sense of family in the Church of the twenty-first century." &mdash;Mike Aquilina, author of&#160;The Fathers of the Church and Roots of the Faith"Sacred Scripture tells us that, 'Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of His holy ones' (Ps. 116:15). These holy men and women, boys and girls, whom we know as saints, are therefore precious to the Catholic Church. Thomas J. Craughwell has rendered an honorable service to the Church and the world with his new book, Saints Preserved&mdash;a lively and captivating account of 300 resplendent saints and their holy relics, which we venerate with devotion to this day. &mdash;Patrick Madrid, author of Search and Rescue and Does the Bible Really Say That?
