Read the Thrilling "Outlaws of Ravenhurst" Catholic Classic!

(Summary by Mary B.): "Outlaws of Ravenhurst is one of my favorite books. It is action packed and inspiring! Written by Sister M. Imelda Wallace S.L. (in 1923), this exciting story tells about a “farmer's son” returning to his true home in Scotland.

The Gordon walks into a new culture where he must choose between a royal seat beside the King of Scotland or a royal seat beside the King of Heaven. 

The Gordon shows bravery as he faces daily hardships. He shows loyalty to his family and clan. 

The Gordon meets many difficult problems in his life but his virtues and deep faith help overcome them all."
