Rather rare Protestant imprint of the moral theology of one of the most influential 18th century Catholic thinkers, Alphonsus Liguori [1696-1787]. Due warnings are given against his popish theology, but the force of his ethical and theological thought is still deemed worth carrying forward. Rare on the market.
