The Life of Saint Rose of Lima is a biographical work written by Frederick William Faber in 1855. The book tells the story of Saint Rose of Lima, the first canonized saint of the Americas. Born in Lima, Peru in 1586, Rose was known for her piety and devotion to God from a young age. She became a Dominican tertiary and spent her life in prayer and service to the poor and sick, earning a reputation as a miracle worker. The book explores Rose's life, including her struggles with physical and emotional pain, her mystical experiences, and her eventual death at the age of 31. Faber's work draws on historical accounts and primary sources to paint a vivid portrait of this remarkable saint, while also reflecting on the broader themes of faith, devotion, and self-sacrifice. The Life of Saint Rose of Lima is a classic work of hagiography and a testament to the enduring power of spiritual devotion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
