This well-loved copy of “Among the Stars” by Dominic Morera offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Catholic history. Published in 1957, it chronicles the life and work of Father Joseph Manyanet, the founder of the Congregations of the Sons of the Holy Family and the Missionary Daughters of the Holy Family of Nazareth. Manyanet’s innovative approach to religious education and his dedication to serving the poor and marginalized made him a pioneering figure in 19th-century Spain. Despite its worn condition, this book remains a testament to Manyanet’s enduring legacy and the impact of his teachings on generations of Catholics. Collectors of religious biographies and those interested in the history of the Catholic Church in Spain will appreciate the chance to own this rare volume, which provides valuable insights into the life of a remarkable spiritual leader.
