Heretics. One of Chesterton's earliest books, Heretics is
also one of his best. Overflowing with characteristic wit, incisiveness,
and splendid gusto, here is Chesterton's razor-sharp analysis of the
fallacies of modern thought as exemplified in the leading writers of the
time. Nietzsche, Shaw, Yeats, Kipling, Ibsen, H.G. Wells, and others are
all submitted to a ruthless Chestertonian examination. However, true to
his character, Chesterton gives each man his due by allowing the reader
to celebrate the real value of his work. No. 2216.

| Lord of the World. Described by Fulton Sheen as one of the
three greatest depictions of the demonic in world literature, Lord of
the World is apocalyptic science fiction. The West has succumbed to
socialism. The East, is a single pantheistic bloc. Forces of secular
materialism, relativism, and state control are triumphant everywhere -
attacking the supernatural claims of the Catholic Church. Enter Julian
Felsenberg - diplomat, scholar, guru, Antichrist... No. 2218.

True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin. True Devotion to the
Blessed Virgin is one of the greatest and most celebrated books ever
written about Our Lady. Praised by popes, mystics, and theologians, this
profound and powerful book presents Mary as the essential and infallible
key to the heart of Jesus. Nowhere else will you find a deeper or more
insightful book on the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the life of
the Christian and the life of the Church. Unpublished during St.
Louis-Marie De Montfort's lifetime, True Devotion has enjoyed the
endorsement of the late Pope John Paul II. He was its tireless champion,
adopting his motto totus tuus from St. Louis and crediting True Devotion
with the turning-point in his spiritual life. St. Louis himself wrote
that True Devotion would be the way of life for many great saints.

| The Idea of a University. As the leader of the famous Oxford
Movement, Cardinal John Henry Newman was eminently qualified to write
such a book as The Idea of a University. In it, Newman poses a number of
critical questions: What is the purpose of education? What does it mean
to be educated? What is the role of a university? And where does
Catholicism fit in? His insightful discussion highlights the proper
relationships between religion, learning, culture, and politics which
should be fostered in all universities. No. 2225.

The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Anne Catherine
Emmerich's books are not merely works of uncanny power by a renowned
mystic and stigmatic. They present visionary recreations of the exact
details and circumstances of the events in the Gospel. These recreations
give the faithful the sense of being privileged witnesses to the events
described more sparingly in the Scriptures. The Life of the Blessed
Virgin Mary provides an in-depth account of Our Lady's ancestry, birth
and life. It also contains information on the hidden years of Our Lord's
childhood, life in the Holy Family, and Our Lady's later years and
death. The Blessed Virgin's life radiates from these pages, revealing
her beautiful and unique holiness. No. 2229.

The Story of a Soul. The Story of a Soul, St. Therese of
Lisieux's autobiography, was first published in 1899. Today it ranks
among the greatest Christian spiritual classics and has been translated
into many well-known languages. Almost every pope since its publication
has promoted St. Therese's teaching to the faithful for their imitation;
Pius XI declared her the greatest saint of our age and John Paul II made
her a Doctor of the Church. Readers are often caught by the vivid
clarity or simple profundity of some sentence of hers in such a way that
their lives are completely changed. St. Therese's style is extremely
childlike and spontaneous, having a charm that is hard to describe,
whether she rises to poetic heights or simply pours her heart out to
Jesus Himself. No. 2231.

| Orthodoxy. Arguably one of the most brilliant apologetic
books in the English language! Chesterton wrote Orthodoxy in 1908 as a
response to a challenge from one of his readers to state his creed.
Rarely has any challenge been more gloriously and chivalrously met. Full
of sparkling paradoxes, breathtaking wordplay, trenchant argument and
blinding logic. Chesterton's work is witty and insightful, illustrating
the reasonableness of orthodoxy despite the attacks of its critics.

Catechism of the Council of Trent. Previously known as the
"Roman Catechism," this authoritative catechism was produced by the
Council of Trent and originally published in 1566. St. Pius IV and
participants in the Council he convened during the Protestant
Reformation recognized the need for a systematic explanation of the
Catholic faith. The Catechism of the Council of Trent, organized for
methodical instruction of the faithful, still serves as an excellent
compendium of the Church's doctrine and life. Scholars and amateur
Church historians will certainly want to have this primary source close
at hand. No. 2224.

Baltimore Catechism No 1. Since 1885, the Baltimore Catechism
has been used as an incomparable tool for passing on the faith to the
next generation. The modern revival of this Catechism reflects a growing
desire among Catholics to understand and learn the truths of their
Faith. The Baltimore Catechism clearly and concisely explains what
Catholics believe in an accessible question and answer format. Baltimore
Catechism No. 1 is a superb teaching instrument with 33 lessons
appropriate for grades 4-7. The content is structured and limited in
order to be easily grasped by young children. Parents and catechists
will enjoy using this Catechism to instruct their children and students
in the fundamentals of Catholicism. No. 2226.

| Introduction to the Devout Life. Since its first publication
in 1609, Introduction to the Devout Life has always had a privileged
position in the Church: no other spiritual guide provides so complete,
so balanced and so practical an approach to the spiritual life. For his
spiritual genius, St. Francis De Sales was made a Doctor of the Church.
De Sales was a master psychologist with a special gift for teaching
practical morality with common sense. Written for laymen surrounded by
worldliness, this book does what many similar books fail to do: it
teaches the reader to grow in holiness, step by simple step. No.

records of Sister Josefa's revelations-each one brings out in clearer
light and strength some dogmatic truth. The Way of Divine Love invites
us to deeper insight into the Heart of Our Lord, His love, the value of
souls, the happiness of heaven, and the irreparable loss of the damned.

The Interior Castle. St. Teresa of Jesus, also known as St.
Teresa of Avila, is one of the most popular Doctors of the Church. Her
teachings on prayer have inspired and guided Christians in their
spiritual journeys for over four hundred years. Although The Interior
Castle describes her own particular road to holiness, St. Teresa is
aware that others may be led differently for there are many paths to the
heavenly mansions. Her work is invaluable because it is the result of
careful inquiry into the various phases whereby a soul is gradually
transformed into the likeness of God. St. Teresa takes nothing for
granted; her personal experiences are admitted only after having been
fully investigated and found to be consistent and conformable to the
teaching of the Church and the words of Holy Scripture. No.
