The Earliest Suttas Or Sacred Sayings is a book written by Charles F. Horne.

Horne's approach is scholarly and objective, and he presents the material in a clear and accessible manner.The Earliest Suttas Or Sacred Sayings is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Buddhist philosophy and practice. These sections include the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, the nature of suffering, and the concept of karma.The book also includes a detailed glossary of Buddhist terms and concepts, as well as a bibliography of further reading.
