This review is from: Forty Gospel Homilies: Gregory the Great (Cistercian Studies) (Paperback)

If you are looking for Forty Gospel Homilies written by Pope Gregory the Great, translated from Latin into well-written, readable English, then this is the book for you. As to the worth of the content, I will not speak save to say that I personally find him very insightful and his homilies edifying; you may disagree, but you will have to read the work first to find out :)
