Saint John Bosco Bundle (3 Books)

Learn more about one of the Church’s best loved saints in these two books by Father Augustin Auffray!

Saint John Bosco: A Giant of Charity

The great Saint John Bosco comes to life in this monumental work by Father Auffray who studied at source in Turin for many years. The author leaves no stone unturned as he brings us on a journey through the Saint’s life, making this one of the most complete, if not the most complete biography available in the English language.

This edition has been entirely reviewed and the language has been updated to suit a 21st Century audience, while changing nothing of the book’s substance.

How St. John Bosco Punished

Every parent and teacher knows that punishment is part and parcel of every true education. How did Saint John Bosco, one of the greatest educators ever, approach it? Find out the answer in this short study by the Saint’s biographer, Father Auffray.

Mamma Margherita: Model Mother

Would John Bosco have been the great Saint we all love and admire if he had a different mother? It is to be doubted. She was the one who raised him and inspired him to adopt the educational method which was so successful for him later.

Partly composed from material taken from Saint John Bosco: A Giant of Charity and partly from Don Bosco’s memoirs, this book paints as complete a picture as possible of Mamma Margherita, the mother of a great Saint.
