St. Rose of Lima had his books always at hand and even used them to fight off the Devil. St. Francis de Sales urged a bishop-elect to read Fray Louis' works, beginning with The Sinner's Guide, and to treat them as a second breviary. Sts. John of the Cross, Peter of Alcántara, Vincent de Paul, and Louise de Marillac all counted Fray Louis among their favorite spiritual writers.

Pope Benedict XIII told him: "Your writings . . . have benefited your fellow creatures more than if you had given sight to the blind and raised the dead to life."

In this book, the author answers these and other critical questions:

• Why should I serve God?
• What privileges belong to those who practice virtue?
• What practical remedies can I use to overcome vices?
• What are my specific duties to God, my neighbor, and myself?
• Why is courage so important in learning to practice virtue?
