Reseña del libro "I, Frederic....: Ozanam in his own words (en Inglés)"
Dear Reader, I decided to get out of the boat and walk on water. I chose to write an "autobiography" of a man who never wrote an autobiography. 187 years after his death, I did this because I have such admiration for him: Blessed Antoine-Frederic Ozanam. Over the years, I found that I know less about him than what I do know. In the process of writing this volume, I discovered much more about this 19th century Frenchman! I believe he ranks among the most remarkable individuals I have ever studied, a rare combination of intellectual genius and man of sanctity, an extremist in love. By delving into his thoughts, feelings, and actions in the various sections of this biography I hope you will become as fascinated with Ozanam as I am and have been: + the closeness of the Ozanam family + Frederic's spirituality + the founding of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul + his insights on a variety of subjects + his fairly-tale marriage + the last months of his short life Thank you for choosing "I, Frederic..."
