Just in time for the Christmas Season.

The excellent Preserving Christian Publications is reprinting an affordable hardback version of Dom Prosper Gueranger's classic The Liturgical Year.


 

This is the Newman Press version from the 1950s. The first six are available, and I have the first three. 

These are excellent reprints. Some pages are a little lighter than others, but not so much as to impair readability. And the typeface is, despite the smaller size of the volumes, not in "go blind-pt" type.

Packed with prayers from the Eastern and Western Catholic traditions, saints days and fascinating details of liturgical history, it is well worth the investment.
