Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Publications of the Catholic Truth Society In Rome, about the year 490, a little boy with his satchel daily trudged to school from his lodging on the banks of the Tiber. The streets through which he passed bore evidence of invasion and disaster: the hordes of Alaric in 410, of Genseric in 455, of Ricanor in 476, had spoiled and dismantled temple, and palace, and left the city a wreck of its former splendour. A boy, of ten cares little for historic grandeur, but confines his interest in the world to his school and his home. He was bright and intelligent, with a serious air, and an inner depth in his eyes that suggested thought and recollection beyond his years. He slipped through the streets unnoticed by the uncouth swaggering Teutons, who loved to jostle and jeer at the crestfallen Roman patricians. Had they known his future, they would have stopped to look at the little lad, whom God designed to shape the destinies of their race. St. Benedict was born in 480 at Nursia in the Sabine mountains, half way between Rome and Ancona. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
