Thomas a Kempis's Imitation of Christ has appeared in more editions and more languages than any other book except the Bible.Samuel Johnson once remarked to Boswell that it "must be a good book, as the world has opened its arms to receive it." Others have praised it as well, including Thomas Carlyle, George Eliot, Thomas de Quincey and Matthew Arnold. St. Ignatius Loyola translated it, and Pope John Paual I was said to have been reading it on the night he died.Dr. Bill Creasy's award-winning work on the Imitation of Christ has become the standard translation of this spiritual classic.
