Readers are in for an enthralling history lesson on Catholicism and a word of caution from author Alex LaPerchia in his latest book, Food For The Soul. . . .What is different about Food For The Soul is that the author explores the lives of several major influential Catholic figures through a dramatic and creative approach rather than just a straight historical narrative. . . .LaPerchia’s narrative style and the book’s format and variety help make Food For The Soul an entertaining and educational read and takes the reader on a spiritual journey that will help them find meaning and relevance in this world while preparing them for the world to come.
