The Book of the Holy Rosary
The Book of the Holy Rosary
A Doctrinal Exposition of its Fifteen Mysteries, mainly conveyed in select extracts from the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, with an explanation of their corresponding types in the old testament.
A preservative against unbelief.
By the Reverend Henry Formby,
of the Third Order of Dominic.
Embellished with 36 full-page illustrations. Designed by Clasen, D. Mosler, and J.H. Powell.
The book will be seen to consist in substance of a selection chiefly taken from the writings of the great Saints and Doctors of the Church, nearly all of them probably now for the first time in the English language. Great care, however, has been taken to point out the several stages or steps in the progress of the Divine work of human redemption, to which each of the fifteen mysteries bears its respective and most instructive testimony.
