Don Bosco: Life and Work by Pietro Stella, along with Don Bosco and the Death of Charles, presents a scholarly and deeply contextualized portrait of St. John Bosco’s legacy within Catholic religious thought. Stella’s main volume argues for Don Bosco’s significance not only as a charismatic educator and founder of the Salesian order, but also as a pivotal figure in shaping modern Catholic spirituality and social outreach. The companion monograph, The Death of Charles, examines one of Don Bosco’s most famous miracles—the alleged resurrection of a youth named Charles—by tracing historical records, oral testimony, and hagiographic tradition. Together, these works illustrate the tension between faith and historiography, offering readers both theological insight and rigorous documentation. Ideal for scholars of religion and Catholic history, the set contributes meaningfully to the study of sainthood, institutional memory, and spiritual influence.
