The book for all Christians who wish to delve deeper into the secret of Mary as revealed by Saint Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort In True Devotion to Mary, Saint Louis provides meditations and excercises which can bring you a life lived more closely in conformance with the teachings of Jesus Christ, through the emulation of the perfect virtues and example of his mother, Mary. In explaining the wonderful spiritual benefits which True Devotion to Jesus through Mary can bring about in a person s life, St. Louis makes it clear that this little-known devotion provides the hidden key to both sanctity and salvation in our times. When a book continues to be a best-seller two hundred and fifty years after the author's death, we may safely say that it is a classic in its own field. Such is Saint Louis de Montfort's True Devotion to Mary. Translated into more than thirty languages, with editions running into the several hundreds, this book of high authority and unction, as Pope Benedict XV described it, has found its way into the hearts and lives of countless Christians since its providential discovery in 1842 including Pope John Paul II, who said that reading this book was to be a turning point in my life... it is an integral part of my interior life and of my spiritual theology. Written in French (probably about the year 1712), the book was first translated into English in 1862, by the scholarly poet and spiritual writer, Father Frederick William Faber. Over a century has now elapsed since that first English version, and in recent years there has been a growing demand on the part of many followers of St. Louis de Montfort that a broader translation be made one that would take into account our contemporary modes of expression. Hence, this new adaptation by popular contemporary writer Eddie Doherty (once billed as America s Star Reporter. ) May it contribute to a better understanding of Vatican II's beautiful exposition of Mary as model of the Church and mother of us all. Included in this new edition is a beautiful testimonial to the power of True Devotion the story of how Eddie and Catherine Doherty, the founders of the Madonna House Apostolate, first made their consecration to Jesus through Mary, and how the consecration changed their lives and the life of their apostolate.

Review Reading this book was to be a turning point in my life... it is an integral part of my interior life and of my spiritual theology. --Pope John Paul II About the Author In his long career as an ace newspaper reporter and best-selling author, Eddie Doherty has touched the hearts of thousands with his gifted reporter s flair for words and his lively and irresistible writing style seasoned with wit and humour. A father who suffered the tragic deaths of two wives, Eddie grew determined to help others grasp how even this world s harshest sorrows can be resplendent with Christ s light. Having met Catherine de Hueck at her mission in Harlem, Eddie later married and co-founded the world-wide Madonna House Apostolate with her. In his later years, he was ordained a priest in the Melkite Catholic Church.

True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin is one of the greatest and most celebrated books ever written about Our Lady. Praised by popes, mystics and theologians, this profound and powerful book presents Mary as the essential and infallible key to the heart of Jesus. Nowhere will you find a deeper and more life-changing book on that quintessentially Catholic doctrine: the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the life of the Christian and the life of the Church. Unpublished during the saint's life time, it has enjoyed the endorsement of the many outstanding popes the Church has been blessed with since its discovery in 1842. John Paul II, in particular, was its tireless champion, crediting True Devotion with a turning-point in his spiritual life, adopting his motto, Totus tuus, from St. Louis. 
 The key to De Montfort's Marian spirituality is that he considered Our Lady to be the infallible and chosen gate to the heart of Christ - To Jesus through Mary: it is Christ Himself Who is at the centre of True Devotion. This edition has been re-typeset using the text of the 1947 edition originally published by The Fathers of the Company of Mary, Colbury, Totton under the imprimatur of Johannes Henricus, Episcopus Portus Magni, 21st May 1947.

 About the Author 
For approximately three hundred years, Le Bon Père de Montfort (The Good Father from Montfort), as St. Louis de Montfort was commonly known, has been identified with a profound and important aspect of Catholic spirituality and doctrine. Thousands of the faithful have found in his example and his teaching a vision of Christian life that is sure, reliable, captivating and challenging in its beauty, its depth, its wisdom and its boldness. Fr. de Montfort was a tireless preacher of the reign of Jesus through Mary who put at the service of his mission all of the richness of his wide-ranging talents as an artist, a writer, a poet, a theologian and a sculptor. He identified himself so closely with the plight of the poor, the forgotten and the cast aside that he was received by them as one of their own. Finding in the Cross of the Savior a treasure of inestimable value, he did not flee from suffering, nor from sorrow or sacrifice, as he understood that nothing so fully unites one with the Lord than the Cross of the rigors of faithful discipleship borne faithfully, lovingly and even joyfully. The key to this ardent and fruitful apostolic life was his surrender of himself into the maternal care of Mary, the great Mother of God. This great secret, the secret of Mary, the secret that leads one to intimate communion with Jesus Christ, the eternal and incarnate Wisdom of God, is the treasure he longs to impart through his writings and there is not a word that he has written which does not hold some aspect of that great treasure within it. This book, then, is a treasury - a treasury of life, of wisdom and of grace. It is such a treasury because its author, St. Louis de Montfort, is one who has been privileged to receive from Our Lady a sharing in the great Treasury that is stored up in her holy and immaculate heart, and it is from this great Treasury that we are given a sharing in and through the writings of the Good Father from Montfort. What ill or evil, Lord, can harm This joyous heart that You alone can charm? I love You more with every breath, So how can I fear life or death? To love you, Father, is to live and sing The songs the angels sing their King. God alone in every cell of me! God alone! For all eternity! - St. Louis de Montfort
