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. St. John Baptist de La Salle was a French priest who dedicated his life to providing education to poor children in the 17th century. He founded the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, also known as the De La Salle Brothers, to carry on his mission of providing education to those in need. The book details St. John Baptist de La Salle's life, from his childhood in Reims, France, to his ordination as a priest and his eventual founding of the De La Salle Brothers. It explores his struggles and triumphs, including his conflicts with the church hierarchy and his efforts to create a system of education that was accessible to all children, regardless of their social status.The author, a member of the De La Salle Brothers, provides a unique perspective on St. John Baptist de La Salle's life and work. He offers insights into the challenges faced by the order in its early years, as well as the impact that St. John Baptist de La Salle had on the education system in France and beyond.Overall, The Story of St. John Baptist de La Salle is a fascinating look at the life of a visionary educator and the order he founded.
