Saint Robert

At age fifteen, Robert Bellarmine, a youth with an eager mind and a gift for words, enrolls in a new school run by the young order of Jesuits who have just arrived in his Italian hilltop town.

This biography for young readers paints a picture of St. Robert Bellarmine—later proclaimed a Doctor of the Church—as a man of intellect and generosity, steadily serving God in humble and exalted positions alike.
