It speaks to every true Christian on the shortness of time, the length of eternity, the fleeting nature of all earthly joy as opposed to the eternity of happiness with God. This book has formed saints for centuries. Each chapter includes a short prayer and practical reflection.
This edition is translated from the Original Latin by the Right Reverend Richard Challoner, D.D. The Imprimatur is by Michael Augustine, Archbishop of New York, NY - May 3, 1895. Each chapter is followed by a section of prayers and personal reflections.
