A Man of Vision

This brief, easy-to-read biography of St. Alphonsus Liguori emphasizes his humanness and his holiness. Using straightforward, historical narrative, liberally interspersed with entertaining anecdotes, it reveals Alphonsus as a powerful, effective, and holy man of his times - as well as an inspirational and charismatic man for our times.
Through expert storytelling, this booklet grounds Alphonsus firmly on the foundations of Italian culture: family and Church. Readers watch as Alphonsus uses that foundation to build the structure we still recognize today - the spirituality, the community, and the charism of the Redemptorists.
