Today is the feast day of, among others, St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort. I chose to highlight him because Pope John Paul II pronounced this the "Year of the Rosary" in his apostolic letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae, and St. Louis de Montfort was one who greatly influenced Pope John Paul II's understanding of Mary and the Rosary.

St. Louis de Montfort's best-known work on the Rosary is the book The Secret of the Rosary, which may be read online. The other work for which he is known is his Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, also available for online reading.
