Publisher Description
"It was through the Blessed Virgin Mary that Jesus came into the world, and it is also through her that he must reign in the world…" With this uncompromising declaration, St. Louis-Marie de Montfort launched TRUE DEVOTION TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN, his widely-influential 17th Century Magnum Opus of Marian spirituality. The book inspired a groundswell of ardor for the Holy Mother of God that had a powerful impact on Catholic spirituality, and which culminated in the foundation of the missionary society "The Company of Mary" and the contemplative order "The Daughters of Wisdom." "I declare with the saints," St. Louis writes in this volume, "Mary is the earthly paradise of Jesus Christ the new Adam, where he became man by the power of the Holy Spirit, in order to accomplish in her wonders beyond our understanding. She is the vast and divine world of God where unutterable marvels and beauties are to be found…." St. Louis-Marie de Montfort was canonized in 1947 by Pope Pius XII.

A most beautiful and necessary read to grow in your love of Jesus through His mother
This book helped me to know and understand Our Blessed Mother and her essential role in leading us to her son. Easy to understand and beautifully written. A great resource to keep returning to to strengthen your faith. I now understand why this was a pivotal book for Blessed John Paul- it should be for all Catholics. It is a book of hope as well.
A must have!!!!!!!
Read slowly and reflect on every sentence because the book is very intense but it will change you. I have seen so many people (including myself) change for the better and you will too. God bless you ~ToTus Tuus~
