The Trappist Monk is a book that provides a concise history of the Order of Reformed Cistercians, also known as the Trappists, written by H.J. McDermott. The book also includes a sketch of the Abbey of New Melleray, which is a Trappist monastery located in Iowa, USA. The author traces the origins of the Trappist order back to the Cistercian reform movement of the 17th century and describes the unique aspects of Trappist spirituality and monastic life.
