[Werner]

This is a firsthand account from multiple sources of the instantaneous, miraculous, and complete conversion of a 28 year old worldly Jew to the Catholic and Apostolic Faith. It is not only a proof of the Divinity of the Catholic Church, but specifically the preeminence of Our Lady: the graces and blessings she bestows on her faithful clients, the efficacy of her promises attached to the Miraculous Medal, and the maternal love she has for us sinners.

[Stephen Heiner]

A beautiful and short read about the miraculous conversion of Alphonse Ratisbonne from Judaism to Christianity, featuring firsthand accounts from those who were present at the events, including Ratisbonne himself.

"The real reason miracles such as this are rejected with scorn, or passed by with indifference, is not their antecedent improbability or the inadequacy of their evidence. It is that they imply the position and power of the blessed Mother of God." (p. 14)
