Young people will find an exciting hero in St. Jean Marie Vianney, Curé of Ars and patron of all parish priests. They will, through these pages, get to know him as a real and lovable person and one to whom they can turn with the feeling that he will understand their needs and they can count on his intercession. Jean Marie Vianney always found it hard to learn. In fact he made history receiving low marks on his examination after his first year of study in the seminary. But by determination, and with God's help, he became a priest. Week by week, year by year, his fame as an adviser and a confessor grew. People flocked from great distances to his little church, and privately, among themselves, they called him "saint." The devil, furious at the ever-increasing number of souls being saved by the Curé, tempted and taunted the priest and even persecuted him physically. But Satan found he had met his match. Illustrated, gold embossed hardcover, 60 lb. cream paper, reinforced and sewn signatures, 150 pages.
