These three volumes are a compilation of Professor Esolen’s monthly essays on the topic of “How the Church Has Changed the World.” Of themselves, each of the volumes makes excellent and inspiring devotional reading; these popular short stories, published in Magnificat over many years, were brought out in three volumes because of their popularity with readers. To read Professor Esolen's ongoing work each month in Magnificat, along with daily Mass texts, other fine essays, art commentaries, meditations, and daily prayers inspired by the Liturgy of the Hours, visit www.magnificat.com to subscribe or to request a complimentary copy of the monthly magazine.
