The perfect book for family reading and an heirloom to last generations. A superb overview of the Church Year.

The Church's Year follows the calendar in effect at the time it was first published (1880), yet nearly all of it is applicable with the use of the 1962 Missal. Totally re-typeset.
"It will bring blessings on any house in which it is kept and used." -Wm. Henry Elder, Archbishop of Cincinnati, 1884.
