<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The story of "The Friend of Youth" is told here in a brief, popular manner for teenagers and adults. A practical joker with a great sense of humor in his youth, St. John Bosco (1815-1888) grew up to become a priest and the founder of the Salesians (the largest order in the Church). Relates the many prophetic dreams he had, how Our Lady called him and helped him to become a priest, his struggles with the devil, and much more! An easy read, and a great book for any Catholic. Impr. 220 pgs, PB<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Mother Frances Alice Monica Forbes, also known as F.A. Forbes, was born in 1869 into a Presbyterian family. She converted to Catholicism in 1900, and entered the Society of the Sacred Heart as a postulant when she was thirty-one. She was a strong-willed and intelligent woman, and used both these gifts to generously make the sacrifices that the Lord wished of her daily. F.A. Forbes authored a considerable amount of books based on the saints, including <i>St. John Bosco: Friend of Youth</i>, <i>St. Monica</i>, <i>St. Catherine of Sienna</i>, <i>St. Benedict</i>, and <i>The Gripfast Series of English Readers</i>. She died in 1936.
