The Life and Glories of St. Joseph

Scripture records no word spoken by St. Joseph, yet God entrusted to him the care of His Son and of the Blessed Virgin. The Life and Glories of St. Joseph is an extensive meditation on the life, virtues, privileges and heavenly glory of the guardian of the Holy Family.

About the author

In this book he draws on Sacred Scripture, the Church Fathers, the Doctors of the Church and Catholic tradition to present Joseph as the guardian of Jesus and Mary and Patron of the Universal Church.
