Excerpt from Life of St. Dominic: A Sketch of the Dominican Order, With an Introduction

The fragrance of his sanctity fills the entire garden of the Church, and all within its holy precincts acknowledge his virtues, even without pausing to learn the peculiar causes of his distinction, while those without hear nothing but the foul reports of such as never saw him, never held any kind of communication with his associates, but who derived all their knowledge of St. Dominic from those who wrongly judged him.

England was not the last in joining in this hasty ver dict, elicited from incompetent testimony nor is she the last in re-opening the case, setting aside all unqualified evidence, - nay, in arraigning before the majesty of reason and of truth the faithful contemporary eye-witnesses of the Saint, and in giving to the world, as the result of most careful and impartial scrutiny, the true life of St. Dominic, of which this is a mere republication.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a biography of Saint Dominic, explores the life of a 13th-century patriarch of Christianity and founder of the Order of Preachers. Raised in a devout household, he becomes a priest and spends a decade engrossed in biblical studies at the University of Palencia. After witnessing the Albigensian heresy's devastating effects in Southern France, Dominic devotes his life to combating the movement. The author meticulously chronicles Dominic's endeavors, including his founding of the Convent of Prouille and his innovative adoption of the Rosary devotion. The book highlights Dominic's exceptional compassion, evident in his willingness to sell his precious books to feed the starving and his efforts to ransom a captive from the Moors. As a historical figure, Dominic's profound influence on religious thought and practice is examined, revealing the timeless significance of his teachings within the broader context of Christian history and spirituality.
