Books with title Peter Claver: Saint among Slaves

Peter Claver lived, worked, and died more than three hundred years before this book was written. What we know of him today has come from the original Spanish biographies written in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and from that most important document of all, the record of the Process of Beatification and Canonization. This book is based on the known facts of St. Peter Claver's life. Little is known of his childhood and youth. Conversations are authentic in many cases, and those invented are used to dramatize true or probable events. St. Peter Claver lives today in the hearts of those who revere him for his life and heroic service to his enslaved brothers.St Peter Claver: a humble man who looked for God in everyone he met - and never failed to find Him.
