Overview
In this book Patrick McMahon O.Carm. presents a powerful defense of the suitability of Albert's Pattern for Life for all Carmelites-laity and religious alike. In both setting a historical context for the Rule and providing a practical commentary for the laity Father Patrick demonstrates that it is adherence to the Rule that defines a Carmelite and gives each of us our Carmelite identity.
