Synopsis:

Commissioned by Our Lord Himself to preach His Gospel, St. Vincent began at age 50 an apostolate of preaching that would extend to France, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and a few other countries as well. Travelling with him were as many as 10,000 people, including at least 50 priests. The throngs that gathered to hear him came from many miles around, such that he was forced to preach in the open--no church being large enough to hold all the people.

About the Author: Father Andrew Pradel, O.P., originally published St. Vincent Ferrer in 1875 under the title St. Vincent Ferrer, of the Order of Friar Preachers: His Life, Spiritual Teaching, and Practical Devotion. TAN republished the first of these three parts (his Life) in 2000, with minor text editing and added illustrations. Father Pradel dedicated his biography of the saint To his Brethren and Sisters in St. Dominic, Spread through England, Ireland and America.
