Focusing on the life of Saint Vincent Ferrer, the book explores his pivotal role during the tumultuous fourteenth and fifteenth centuries in Europe, marked by the Black Death and the Great Papal Schism. As a prominent preacher, Ferrer traveled extensively, preparing people for what he believed was imminent destruction. The narrative reassesses his motivations and influence while providing insights into the era's apocalyptic fears and the factors contributing to the expulsion of non-Christian populations from Spain.
