The Story of St. John Baptist de La Salle is a biography of the founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, written by a member of the order. The book details the life of de La Salle, who was born into a wealthy family in France in the 17th century and went on to become a priest and educator. De La Salle founded the Christian Brothers in order to provide education to poor children, and his work had a profound impact on education in France and beyond. The book covers de La Salle's childhood, his decision to become a priest, his founding of the Christian Brothers, and his work to establish schools and improve education. It also explores the challenges and obstacles he faced, including opposition from the Church and financial difficulties. The book provides a detailed and inspiring account of de La Salle's life and work, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education or the Catholic Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
