Preparation for Death: Or, Considerations on the Eternal Maxims (Unabridged‪)‬

St. Alphonsus Liguori (1696 - 1787) was an Italian bishop famous for his moral teaching. Initially, he practiced law, but was drawn to the religious life and became a priest in the Catholic church. He ministered as a missionary to the poor, setting up "evening chapels". He would later form his own congregation and then be appointed as bishop. He wrote many famous sermons, meditations, and ascetical works. His meditations are still used today for the stations of the cross during Lent.

This particular book offers a sobering insight into the inevitable prospect of death. A timeless classic that will help any Christian take their life and faith more seriously with an eye to their end.
