The Life of Buddha by Andre Ferdinand Herold, was originally published in 1922, and translated from the French by Paul C. Blum in 1927. The work is a biography of the Buddha retold in a simple style. Stringing together a coherent narrative arc from the several classic Buddhist texts, particularly the Buddhacharita of Asvaghosa, the Lalita-Vistara, and the Jataka.

This book dimensionalizes the story of Siddhartha, born into luxury, who seeks and find enlightenment, the sometimes painful growth of the Buddhist community, and his eventual departure for Nirvana. It is short and very readable, and can be recommended for young adults.
