Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Loyola, the Soldier Saint
Looking back now on his past life he found he had been swayed by two great ambitions, love and war. The lady of his choice was no ordinary woman, neither was she countess or duchess but of a much higher standing than either of these. His quest was high. And in War he was the same, not an ordinary soldier doing his day's duty but always the knight and leader of men. His fellow officers credited him with a generous disposition. They said of him that he never harbored a grudge after a quarrel. When he retired from the service, the Duke of Najera put down on his military record that he was generous and conciliatory and a born leader of men.
