Short, powerful testimony about the rosary.
This wonderful little booklet can be read very quickly, within an hour. However, it is packed with useful information that will get you fired up about the effectiveness of praying the rosary. The author starts off talking about various Marian apparitions. He then moves on and refutes some of the objections people might have to the rosary (my mind wanders, it's repetitive, etc); Fr Shamon shows that the only bad rosary is the one not prayed. He then goes on to discuss various testimonials about how the rosary has helped people who were devoted to it, and wraps up with some major world events that were connected with the rosary. To me, the most fascinating anecdote in this book was the story of the Jesuit priests who lived eight blocks from Hiroshima's ground zero. Their devotion to Our Lord and Our Lady through the rosary left them and their house totally unharmed, while their surroundings were laid waste. What more proof do we need???
Proof Of Her Power
Albert Shammon writes a very compelling book on the Power of Mary and her ability to influence her son, Lord Jesus Christ, through praying and meditating on the rosary. The writer does a wonderful job of outlining the time line of all the apparitions of Our Lady and the overall purpose for all of her directives to pray the rosary. She is powerful in her influence over her Son's decisions and she will join her requests with our for peace and deliver them to our Lord. The book is well organized in comparing her apparitions to world events and the impact on the community afterward. The historical tidbits about world wars and political unrest prove this book to be of interest to young men or non-catholics as well as the devoted Marion follower. The only drawback to this book would be it's length. At 40 pages, it does not cover Mary in completeness (but, could any book?)and the author definitely displays his ability to organize a more complete book on Mary and her influence through the use of her devine rosary.
Inspiring work that touches so many lives in a positive way
This is an outstanding handbook all about the Rosary! It is a must read for Catholic's every where. It is such an inspiring work that the author must be extremely proud to be able to touch so many lives in such a positive way. He obviously was inspired by the Blessed Virgin Mary. I have passed it on to my family and friends after reading several times and they to are passing it along.
