At the fountain of Elijah

"Wilfrid McGreal shows that if we want a way into Carmelite spirituality, and to know what it has to say to people at the turn of the Millennium, we need to go back to the origins of the 'family'. How has the vision of the pilgrims and hermits who settled on Mount Carmel been sustained for some eight hundred years? What is the key to it, and how has it been re-imagined in different eras and cultures?"--Jacket.

First sentence: The first Carmelites have left very little in the way of historical and biographical detail.
