By The Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, 528 pages, soft leather cover, 3 ribbons
With the completion of this book, a step has been taken which we hope will bring the Church that much closer to fulfilling Sister Lucia’s dream. For the first time (to the best of our knowledge), the Church’s Liturgy and the Virgin’s Rosary, long intimately united in their supernatural end, are connected in a tangible manner. With sets of meditations corresponding to each day of the Liturgical year and to each hour of the Divine Office, the Rosary can now be prayed with holy Mother Church, as it were, guiding the thoughts of our hearts even as holy Mother Mary has long guided the images of our imaginations. Truly, these mysteries are not meant to be merely remembered. They are meant to be entered into. They are meant to be lived.

THE JESUIT RELATIONS are full of details of the life and works of some of the most heroic missionaries ever chronicled. These three volumes could properly be described as a summary of the thousands of documents comprising “The Relations” (as they are commonly named) of those first Jesuits who evangelized the area of North America known as New France from 1642 - 1710.In addition to those Eight Canonized Martyrs the stories of many other pioneer priests are outlined. Some are every bit as astounding as those canonized.Volume One covers those missionaries to the Iroquois and other tribes in New York, Quebec, and New England. Volume Two is primarily about those of Huronia, Ontario, and the Great Lakes states. Volume Three the missionaries to other Algonquin tribes.

Make no mistake—Fr. Faber’s original work on the Seven Dolors of Our Lady (The Foot of the Cross, of which the present book is but a re-rendering of one chapter) is sublime. One could argue that it stands in the field of Marian literature virtually unsurpassed for the wealth of its insights and the grandeur of its expressions. Truly, its pathos is breathtaking. Its thoughts are deep and original and well-nigh heartbreakingly beautiful. It deserves to be read by every serious Catholic on earth, not once but many, many times; for advancing in the love of Mary, we know, is the surest, easiest way to advance in the love of Christ, and this is the whole purpose of our mortal existence.
Whoever you are, dear Catholic, whatever duties press upon you in your current state in life, you need not hesitate to pick up this modified masterpiece of Fr. Faber and immerse yourself its richness. It is perfectly accessible. It is a book for every Catholic, and that means you.
