Beautifully written, this should be a catholic classic.

This is one of the most eloquently written books I have ever read...One gets an intimate portrait of some of the greatest saints through the letters they wrote. The author reminds us of the Jesuits as they used to be...bold proclaimers of the Gospel and the Ten Commandments. This book is a true gem.
