Fr John gives us a fascinating insight into the culture and history of sixteenth century Mexico - the turbulent world into which the Blessed Virgin Mary entered with her apparitions in 1531. The shrine of Guadalupe is now the most visited Marian shrine in the world.
Fr John Boles is the director of the Columban Missionaries in Britain and spent three decades in Latin America.
