description: St. Alphonsus Maria Liguori says: This book though small has cost me a great deal of labor. I regard it as of extreme utility to all sorts of persons; and I unhesitatingly assert that among all spiritual treatises there is none and there can be none morenecessary than that which treats on prayer as a means of obtaining eternal salvation. I do not think that I have written a more useful work than the present in which I speak of prayer as a necessary and certain means of obtaining salvation and all the graces that we require for that object. If it were in my power I would distributea copy of it to every Catholic in the world in order to show him the absolute necessity of prayer for salvation.
