    Editorial Reviews

    Fr. Sebastian Walshe, OPRAEM

    Fr. Sebastian Walshe, OPRAEM (author of The Foundations of Wisdom: An Introduction to the Perennial Philosophy )

    “This small book on the angels is a simple yet profound guide to a deeper understanding and devotion to the holy angels. In his teaching on the angels, Saint Aloysius reveals a wisdom beyond his years: a wisdom born of his angelic purity and his own personal devotion to his guardian angels and the holy Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael. Only an angelic soul could have written so well about the angels!”

    Fr. Richard C. Hermes, SJ

    Fr. Richard C. Hermes, SJ (President, Jesuit High School of Tampa)

    “The early Jesuits had a strong and lively devotion to the Holy Angels. In these meditations, Saint Aloysius gives due veneration to God’s holy messengers, reflects on their most typical virtues, and then exhorts ‘the soul’—that is, himself and his neighbor—to embrace with zeal these angelic virtues for the glory of God and the salvation of his soul. Classic, practical Jesuit devotion at its best!”

    Sr. Mary Raphael, DVM (foundress of the Daughters of the Virgin Mother and author of Some Seed Fell)

    “The Christian soul can only benefit from learning about the holy angels and cultivating a pious devotion to them. The work of Saint Aloysius Gonzaga wonderfully details the light, clarity, and beauty of the angels and how they can intercede for us.”
