Opis

Originally published in 1882, this work is still of great value to Catholics today. THE objects and ends of devotion are always and everywhere the same. But the forms and methods whereby these objects are venerated and these ends attained may vary perhaps ought-to vary, with time and place, and even with individual taste or temperament. Hence many prayer books all in themseIves good, but not all equally well suiting all. It is believed that there is yet room for another manual; hence the present compilation. It is intended to comprise all a Catholic will ordinarily need, and at the same time to unite all in a volume which shall not be cumbersome, and yet shall present all in a print not too small for failing eyes, or for any eyes whatever, in the many cases where the light happens to be too "dim," if not too "religious." It is hoped that the patronage of the public will show that these ends were sufficient to prompt the enterprise and have been sufficiently attained.
