"Howse, Assistant Editor of the Daily Telegraph, has a keen eye for quality: he has already authored Best Sermons Ever and Best Spiritual Reading Ever. This collection of prayers includes not only prayers in the usual sense but also hymns, poems, portions of liturgy, and private devotions-and there is not a dud in the bunch." - Library Journal

"This may be the classical collection of prayers and prayerful poetry that you are looking for, or are missing from your own bookshelf. For reference or reflection, Howse has provided in this attractive anthology a good selection of our most loved prayers and prayerful quotations" - Franciscan
