James Martin is a very engaging and scholarly writer. He is one of the best Catholic writers in America and has written numerous works on faith and morality. He is very persuasive in writing about Catholic faith. He has a way of explaining faith and scripture in a way very palatable to modern minds. He mixes personal details with the topics he discusses.
In this book on some of the great saints of the Church, he makes the saints alive and interesting to the readers. When we read his biography of these saints, we too tend to become part of their lives.He has a very beautiful way of presentation, making the saints contemporary and lovable.
Some of the holy people he deals with are Joan of Arc, Theresa of Lisieux,Thomas Merton,Pedro Arrupe,Bernadette Soubrios, Mother Teresa, Dorothy Day,St.Peter,St.Joseph and Virgin Mary etc.
