Publisher's summary

Everything Needed to Understand and Appreciate the Traditional Latin Mass!

Extremely informative, yet very easy to listen to! This book explains prayer by prayer, what happens at the Latin Mass and why. Why is the Mass in Latin, the use of silence, bells, specific colors, etc. - and how we participate.

Reviews are very enthusiastic! Ties in beautifully with Pope Benedict XVI's motu proprio opening the door to the universal celebration of the Latin Mass.

Everyone should read.

Great Book! This book will help the Catholic understand their faith and their Mass. This book may also convert the non-Catholic to Catholicism!

Excellent Explanation of the Mass in General

Not only is this book afine discussion of the Latin Mass but it is a wonderful discussion of the Mass as primary vehicle of Catholic worship. This book also illuminates liturgical worship writ large!

Drama club narrator.

The narrator makes the subject sound like an overly dramatic, flamboyant, even comical play. Great book ruined.

Not quite complete

It would’ve been far better if the mass had been rendered both in Latin and in English as an aid to those who do not understand it. Rendering it only in English is a hindrance because it does not provide as full explanation as might otherwise be the case.

Good content

The content is excellent but the reader mispronounces badly the Church Latin. Overall it's very good introduction to the Traditional Latin Mass.
