author:  Kevin Orlin Johnson 
description: "A great book on the Rosary by that great writer on Catholic mysticism, Kevin Orlin Johnson . . . " -- <i>Peggy Noonan, Wall Street Journal</i><br /><br />"The Rosary saved the West once and can do so again, if people are faithful to it. Read this book!" -- <i>Rod Dreher, New York Post</i><br /><br />"The best book I have yet seen on this subject." -- <i>Michael Potemra, Literary Editor, National Review</i><br /><br />Very informative, very interesting! A wonderful array of theology on prayer, grace, spirituality, to name only a few fields. Rosary is a book filled with knowledge ... reading it was indeed an intellectual and spiritual delight to my soul. A beautiful work, and a true work of love for Our Lady. -- <i>Deacon Harry Prestwood, S.F.O., President, Our Lady's Rosary Makers </i>
