"The succinct considerations address the historical or contemporary
context of the work, explain the significance of the author, and
contain a brief synopsis of the actual title." "--Library
Journal"
"For Catholics who have forgotten, or never discovered, treasured
books of their own tradition, Don Brophy deserves applause for his
brief but knowing introductions to a hundred of them." --Kenneth L.
Woodward, author, "Making Saints"
"This is the most congenial history of Catholic thought one could
ever hope to find. On every page, I found some new connection to be
made or an intriguing insight to be savored." --Phyllis Tickle,
author, "The Divine Hours"
"This is the work of a man who loves both books and the Catholic
tradition. Don Brophy speaks to head and heart in this gentle guide
