• 600 pages in an 8.50 x 5.50 inch leatherette volume suited for regular devotional use

Compared to many devotional books that offer brief reflections only, this volume presents an orderly and practical treatment of Catholic spiritual theology while remaining accessible for daily reading. It is especially useful for morning meditation, Lenten reading, Eucharistic adoration preparation, spiritual direction support, or anyone seeking a more disciplined prayer life while living in the world.

Fr. Tanquerey's writing is valued for its clear, careful, and balanced approach. Rather than pursuing controversy or speculation, this classic guide explains the foundations the Church has consistently taught for growth in holiness. For readers looking for Catholic books on grace, mysticism, and spiritual direction, this edition offers a structured path toward a deeper life in Christ.
