A Prayer Book of Catholic Devotions By William G. Storey
Best-selling author William G. Storey compiles some of the best traditional devotions to assist in daily prayer throughout the liturgical year. Strongly Biblical in tone and content, A Prayer Book of Catholic Devotions was written to carry out a Vatican mandate which promotes the revival of traditional Catholic devotions.
In the first devotional prayer book based on the liturgical year, this gorgeous leatherette devotional uses psalms, canticles, Scripture readings, and traditional prayers to celebrate the holy seasons of the year, from Advent and Christmas to Lent and Easter. Concentrating specifically on Jesus and Mary, Storey presents devotions from throughout the ages, both official and unofficial, that have found a special place in the lives of Catholics.

Review By: Anonymous From Virginia USA 5.0/5Superior Devotional for the Seasons, 04/13/2007
Mr. Storey has compiled an excellent devotional and prayerbook for the busy Catholic. He includes many traditional prayers as well as those with a newer feeling to them. Without doubt, the best part is the seasonal division of the book. Beginning with Advent, he allows the reader to progress through the church year with many choices for individual and group devotions. If he comes out with another edition, which I pray he does, I hope he adds All Saints prayers, a section of devotions between Pentacost and All Saints, more chaplets such as St. Michael, St. Jude,and others, and finally several ribbon markers. Mr. Storey's Praybook and Devotional for the Seasons will make a memorable gift for adult converts, Mother's Day, graduations, anniversaries, or something special for someone you know would appreciate and use it.
The book is sized perfectly for pocket or purse, and its hardbound brown and gold cover and sewn pages ensure that the praybook will last many years. It's a real bargain at the price!
