Book Synopsis
Spiritual Friendship is today the best known and perhaps most influential of the 13 surviving works of Aelred, abbot of the English Cistercian abbey of Rievaulx from 1147-1167. This fresh new translation allows the intellectual and Christian insight of this great teacher and writer to speak clearly to today's seekers of love, wisdom, and truth.

Trade Review
This new edition provides an especially good introduction, extensive bibliography of sources, translations and secondary studies and a crisp, new translation.Bonnie Thurston, Cistercian Studies Quarterly
This small text provides much to glean, ponder, and in which to delight.American Benedictine Review
