Book Reviews of St. Antony of the Desert
Book Review: A Short Life of the Father of Monasticism
Summary: 5 Stars
St. Anthony of the Desert was a hermit in the 3rd century who became the Father of Monasticism. This book is written by St. Athanasius, another great saint, who is also a Doctor of the Church. It describes St. Anthony's life, his miracles and revelations. There are many interesting stories and incidents from his life included. The book is divided into four sections: how he trained himself, his teachings, his work for others, and his last years. A short, but very worthwhile, biography of a great saint.
