{"product_id":"9780895558206","title":"Padre Pio and America","description":"First titled, \"The Holy Man on the Mountain,\" this book tells the fascinating life story of Padre Pio, with emphasis on his life as a seminarian, young priest and his early decades at San Giovanni Rotondo. Incredible is the number of times the Capuchins sent him home sick unto death while a seminarian and young priest and how he was finally sent to remote San Giovanni Rotondo \"For a couple of weeks of mountain air.\" He never left. But from this small, remote mountain friary, he became world famous and exercised unbelievable influence on the entire world--though early on, he was forbidden by his superiors to preach, to write or to correspond. A few clerics developed enmity toward Padre Pio, resulting several times in orders from his superiors that he be moved. It is simply hilarious to learn why ne never was--though being under obedience, he was entirely willing to do so.","brand":"TAN Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47023128936688,"sku":"9780895558206","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780895558206_p0.jpg?v=1763857541","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780895558206","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
