The Life Of Ramon Monsalvatge: A Converted Spanish Monk Of The Order Of The Capuchins ; With An Introduction By Robert Baird is the memoir of Ramon Monsalvatge. Born October 17, 1815 in Olot, Catalonia, he was dedicated to the priesthood and joined the Capuchins in Barcelona in 1830, taking the name Friar Simon of Olot. The narrative chronicles his austere monastic discipline, the social upheaval against monasteries in 1830s Spain, and his later service as a soldier in Don Carlos’s Carlist army, including sieges of Ripoll and Moya. A pivotal turning point comes in 1842, when he is converted to the Gospel, leaves the seminary, and begins to study the Bible. He becomes a missionary, distributing Scriptures to Spanish expatriates in France and Switzerland, founding connections in Montpellier and Lyons, and eventually proceeding to Geneva and beyond to reach American supporters. The Introduction by Rev. Robert Baird frames the work as a testimony to divine grace and the potential for Protestant faith to renew a deeply Catholic nation. The book is a biographical memoir of religious transformation and evangelical labor.
