An aid to keeping a daily prayer time. My mother, who is Episcopalian, loves the book so much she's worn out one copy and is on her second. Includes prayers for all occasions, including help praying the historical "Hours", traditional Orthodox Christian prayers, and prayers such as one for Creation called "Love of Life" (adapted from a passage in Dostoevsky's THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV)
