Trade Review
Offer[s] a fascinating amalgam of devotion, imagination, and wonder…Ziolkowski is to be congratulated for his skillful and meticulous work in bringing these little-known works to a contemporary readership. There is no doubt that many of today’s monastic readers will find these Marian miracles as fascinating and enchanting as did their medieval counterparts. -- Robert Nixon, O.S.B. * American Benedictine Review *
