"[A] PRETTY LITTLE BOOK ABOUT MIRACLES. . .Sometimes funny, sometimes reverent, sometimes inspirational."
--L.A. Daily News
Sophy Burnham's name has become synonymous with angels. Her first book about the beautiful presence of celestial beings in human affairs, A Book of Angels, was embraced by readers across the country and ultimately soared onto the New York Times bestseller list.
So beloved is A Book of Angels that it generated a great wave of heartfelt response. Hundreds of ordinary people have written to Sophy Burnham about their own encounters with heavenly beings. Now, in Angel Letters, Burnham shares some of their moving stories. These experiences of healing, rescue, warning, and comfort, of angelic blessings seen and unseen, will bring wonder, solace, and inspiration to anyone who welcomes a little angelic intervention in everyday life.
"Will make the reader stop and think--and believe in a better world."
--The Pittsburgh Press

Short stories of angelic and spirit visitations with a few in the great context of Christian foundational beliefs but most deal with encounters of dead relatives and spirit beings from a world that speaks of "New Age" causing me not to be able to recommend to fellow Christians. Just not my cup of tea for a seeker of Christian truths.

What an incredible collection. Accounts of Angels. Accounts of experiencing the love of God. Accounts of Divine Intervention. I learned so much from this and am in such awe of the whole thing. Wow.

I love angel stories and believe them when told of them. It is encouraging to me as I navigate my own life to know I am accompanied by angels.

For skeptics and non-skeptics alike, stories that embrace love, hope, and compassion that nudge a reconsideration and refocus on what is important in life.

Sophy Burnham's writings were always at the top of sale in my angel store. This one in particular, was a hit with the 'angel store' customers. It's not my favorite book on the subject of angels, but it is a nice sampling of letters from those sharing their personal encounters.

It was real good read, but the last story was so simple and yet told us a delicate truth.
