Life of Ambrose, by his deacon, Paulinus; Theodoret; Tillemont’s Memoires Ecclesiastique, tom. x; Baronius; Zosimus; the Epistles of Ambrose; Butler’s Lives of the Saints; Biographie Universelle; Gibbon’s Decline and Fall. Milman has only a very brief notice of this great bishop, the founder of sacerdotalism in the Latin Church. Neander’s and the standard Church Histories. There are some popular biographical sketches in the encyclopædias, but no classical history of this prelate, in English, with which I am acquainted. The French writers are the best.
