Brother Ramon was a much-loved writer and speaker who died in 2000 - a man who delighted in life and people, and who chose solitude to practise the presence of God.

This first biography, written by his friend, has warmth and spiritual insight. It tells of his life's pilgrimage, his quest for holiness as a Franciscan friar, his love of God and his influence on others.

The selection from his writings which concludes the book illustrates his spiritual journey, his views on ecumenism, contemplative prayer, spirituality, retreats, solitude, quietness and much more. It will be an inspiration to readers to live lives fully for Jesus Christ.
