The Life of St Thomas
The Life of St Thomas
by Br William of Tocco
“All who desire to know Saint Thomas personally would do well to read this striking account of his life.” —Fr. Paul Robinson
This book was used as part of the canonization process for St. Thomas Aquinas. It is published in English for the first time in history by Angelus Press and translated by David Foley.
While most Catholics are familiar with the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas, little is known about the saint himself… until now. This insightful biography of St. Thomas Aquinas appears for the first time in English after its composition seven centuries ago. Its author, Brother William of Tocco, used his own contact with the saint and interviews with many who knew him to set down his life.
In this easy-to-read translation, you will find the remarkable story of the life of the Angelic Doctor, including his imprisonment by his family; his incredible powers of abstraction and memory; his refutation of heresies and his heroic virtues; his levitation and other miracles; and his holy death.
This book gives a charming eyewitness account of the unseen life of St. Thomas Aquinas and helps us better understand the family, friends, and era that produced one of the greatest theologians of all time.

God's Use of Instrumental Causality
God's Use of Instrumental Causality
by Fr. Édouard Hugon, O.P.
How Does God Use Instruments?
"All of these gifts of Fr. Hugon—his supernatural holiness, his deep scholarship, his profound understanding of the mind of St. Thomas, and his aptitude for clear explanations—are on display in Instrumental Causality." - Forward, Fr. Paul Robinson
The contributions of this author to both theology and philosophy cannot be overstated. Instrumental Causality could only have been composed by a master Thomist, because it singles out a particular idea of the Angelic Doctor and then proceeds to find that idea in St. Thomas’s explanations of the supernatural order.
One of the main purposes of the book, is a greater understanding of the Catholic faith. In the tradition of Catholic theology, it has always been the practice to manifest its compatibility with reason. The procedure begins with two fixed points: on the one hand, there is the data of revelation, provided by the Magisterium, Tradition, and Scripture; on the other hand, there is the data of reality. The one is known by the authority of the Church, the other is known by reason, especially in its philosophical exercise.
Fr. Hugon wants to make use of theological explanations as the best means to the end of the contemplation of God. He wants to use the most solid bridge available between reason and faith, he finds it in St. Thomas’s Summa, and he explains a particular aspect of that bridge in this work. The bridge that is being highlighted in this book is that of instrumental causality.
Fr. Hugon gets to the bottom of the way that instruments work. Fr. Hugon believes that, once we have understood from reality what an instrument is and how it works—and understood it deeply by means of philosophical reflection—we can then apply the notion of ‘instrument’ to certain mysteries of our faith. In doing so, we are making an analogy between instrument as we know it and instrument as found in the supernatural order. Insofar as our analogy is successful, it enlightens our mind as to how God works in the supernatural order, and so also as to who God is in Himself.
After explaining the notion of instrument Fr. Hugon spends the rest of the book applying that notion analogically to these mysteries of the supernatural order:
This way that theology bears its supernatural fruit. It is meant to lead to a contemplation of God Himself. It can only do so by drawing analogies between what we know of the created order through reason and what we know of the supernatural order through revelation. In this book, Fr. Hugon is providing us with an ample and beautiful subject for theological reflection—God’s love for using instruments in the supernatural order.
This book belongs in the home of every aspiring theologian, philosopher, and ardent Catholic looking to grow his Faith through deeper contemplation of the eternal mysteries of God and Causality.

After explaining the notion of instrument Fr. Hugon spends the rest of the book applying that notion analogically to these mysteries of the supernatural order:
- Scriptural inspiration wherein God inspires a sacred author to write and so uses that author as an instrument
- Our Lord’s humanity, God’s supreme instrument, which He used as a physical cause of miracles during Our Lord’s life, and uses as a physical cause of every grace that is given to souls, up to the present day
- The sacraments and priests which God uses as physical instruments for the conferral of grace
- Miracles, which God sometimes works without using any creature as an instrument, but which He often likes to work using His saints as instruments, in their actions or words, or even inanimate creatures, such as the water of Lourdes
- The Blessed Virgin Mary who, as we know, is the Mediatrix of all graces, and, as such, might very well be used by God as a physical, instrumental cause of those graces, and not merely a moral cause who simply asks for those graces
This way that theology bears its supernatural fruit. It is meant to lead to a contemplation of God Himself. It can only do so by drawing analogies between what we know of the created order through reason and what we know of the supernatural order through revelation. In this book, Fr.

Ecclesiastical Ministry
Ecclesiastical Ministry
by Fr Emmanuel Marie Andre
What do we care if this book originally appeared in 1863? People are still people; priests are still priests. The principles concerning both are timeless. Here's a book praised by Archbishop Lefebvre who during his life often referred to its author as an extraordinary example of the Catholic priesthood in practice.
Fr. Emmanuel's work on the priestly ministry has long captivated the attention of Catholic priests resolved to understand the profoundly supernatural nature of their priesthood, determined to see it as a continuation of the great mystery of the Incarnation, overwhelmed by the sense of what it is to be an instrument of Holy Mother Church. Father's clear understanding of the danger of naturalism, and the supernaturally empty and "lifeless" ministry which is its consequence, and his analysis of the evils of liberalism, were a century ahead of his time.
This great little manual will help priests to live their priesthood united to the Sovereign High Priest Whom they represent. How the priest's "death to the world" is not a passing act, but a continuing holocaust. As long as there are priests, the Blood which baptizes the world will not cease to flow and the Living Source of charity will be in good hands... better hands if this book were followed. Intended for priests, but excellent for lay people as well who will benefit by knowing the true purpose of those with whom they are called to cooperate in the apostolate.

The Roman Rite Destroyed
The Roman Rite Destroyed
by Michael Davies
Twenty-five years ago when this work first was published, its purpose was to prove to the skeptic that the Roman Rite of Mass was in fact being dismantled. Its advertising copy asked, "The Roman Rite destroyed?" as though to surprise its reader. Over a generation later, the first-time readers of The Roman Rite Destroyed, who most probably have known only the New Order of Mass (i.e., the Novus Ordo Missae), have little or no memory of the Tridentine Latin Mass of the Roman rite which predated it. They are living proof that the Roman rite of the Latin Mass has been destroyed.
The newest readers of this small work are perhaps faintly aware of the Mass of their parents and grandparents. What was the Latin Mass? How was it destroyed? Why was it destroyed? Who led its destruction? Can the Novus Ordo Mass that replaced the Tridentine Mass be both similar and superior to it at the same time?
Learn why the Old and New Masses are not similar, and why the New Mass can only be superior to the Old in its consistency with the movement of the Conciliar Church towards a common liturgy with non-Catholics, which is the reason why, says the author, the Old was disposed of, and the New proposed and then imposed.

Joy in Suffering
Joy in Suffering
by Rose Hu
Rose Hu was born on May 4, 1933, in Shanghai, the eighth of nine children. She converted to Catholicism and was baptized on April 17, 1949 just six months prior to China officially becoming Communist.
Following her arrest in 1951, Rose spent the next 26 years in Chinese concentration camps under Mao Tse-Tung. After her release in 1982, she was able to tell this story in her own words.
This book is filled with the raw, unfiltered thoughts and experiences of a soul who endured much for Christ. What Rose suffered for her Catholic Faith defies belief, demands respect and certainly draws a clear picture of the treatment of Catholics under Communism in China.
Recently translated for an English audience, this is an inspirational story of a young woman's life in communist China, that lead her to the Catholic Faith. She gives her account of Catholics suffering in a Chinese labor camp during the communists' persecutions in the 1950's. Her story is highly recommended by Fr. Daniel Couture, SSPX, her spiritual director.

Tales of Foreign Lands vol 2
Catholic Stories of Adventure In the Mission Lands
by Fr Joseph Spillmann, S.J.
Fr. Joseph Spillmann was born at Zug, Switzerland, April 22, 1842. He joined the Jesuits and in 1874 was ordained priest. Due to his poetic gifts he was assigned to work on various periodicals. Spillmann's literary activity resulted chiefly from his connection with these periodicals, especially the Katholische Missionen, which he edited from 1880-90. His Tales of Foreign Lands series contains 21 booklets, consisting of edifying and tastefully illustrated stories for the young. They have been translated into many languages. Newly reprinted by Angelus Press, Volume Two combines four of these stories into a single volume.
The Shipwreck.The world of the Irish lad Willy Brown is turned upside-down when his sinister uncle appears on the doorstep to take his schoolmate Joseph, a Chinese orphan, away with him aboard the good ship St. George. The two boys find themselves together on the high sea
when the captain plots a perilous scheme to stage a shipwreck. But things gets out of control when a mighty hurricane steers the ship off the coast of the Solomon Islands, driving them to crash upon the reefs of a cannibal-infested island.
Crosses and Crowns.The story opens with a scene from the pages of history: The Emperor Tue-Dueck, a terrible persecutor of Christians, lay dying. The young Christian page, Thuan, is at the Emperor's bedside and tells him how he may yet defeat the dragon tormenting him and obtain eternal life, holding out to him a crucifix. The emperor's rage at the sight of the cross earns the boy a flogging, and soon a new persecution is unleashed. The Christian spirit shines through in all his actions in this mission land where bloody persecution is still a threat to those who hold the faith of Christ.
Prince Arumugam. Having been cured by Father Francis after the native doctors and snake-charmers failed, Arumugam asks of his father, the rajah, to let him go to the missioner's school. The rajah consents, on condition that the priest not try to convert his son. The priest agrees,
and the child Arumugam enters the school. But the progress of Arumugam towards Christianity, and his courage to profess his beliefs in the face of his father's tenacious opposition, is challenged by the rajah's plans to uproot his son's new-found faith by all means fair and foul.
The Pirate's Prisoner. For hundreds of years, Moorish slave owners furrowed the waters of the Mediterranean in search of human prey for the slave markets of Northern Africa. Little Francesco goes down to the water's edge alone to await his father's return from the sea. Instead
of meeting his father, lurking pirates carry him off to their ship. The pirate Achmed hopes to induce the boy to become a Muslim and his successor, while the boy's father tries desperately to ransom his beloved son.

Three Indian Tales:
Namameha and Watomilk A French settler's daughter is snatched by marauding Indians and reared among them, all the while keeping the Catholic faith in her heart and in her son's.
Tahko, the Young Indian Missionary The Alaskan Purchase causes an Eskimo cabin boy to journey into the Alaskan wilderness in search of his parents, with the hope of sharing the true religion with his fellow tribesmen.
Father Ren's Last Journey It was winter and a mantle of snow enveloped the land...but when two sick calls come, nothing could deter the zealous missionary from rushing to the aid of his people when they were at the point of death.
The Yang Brothers: The four sons of the old fisherman Yang find themselves on opposite sides when the eldest joins with the Large Knife Society to drive out the Christians and other foreigners active in late 19th-century China and the next son, after a decade in a missionary school, aspires to the priesthood. The uprising begins and the Christians around Lake Talo must mount a defense against the warring Boxers under the leadership of the Yang Brothers.
The Queen's Nephew: In 1551, the powerful prince Siwan invited St. Francis Xavier to come to his capital city. A celebrated religious conference took place in which the Apostle of Japan brilliantly defended the doctrine of Christ against the attacks of the bonzes. When the apostle left Japan later that year, Siwan promised to protect the missionaries and their converts. A quarter of a century later, an event occurs that leads to a powerful struggle at Siwan's court between the king and his queen, and the quest of the young noble Sikatora, the queen's nephew, to know and embrace the truth.
Children of Mary: Toward the end of the 1800's, the Abkasians, a people dwelling in the Caucasus Mountains, between the Black Sea and the Caspian, had been struggling to maintain their liberty against Russian supremacy. The clan of Urban-ok still clings to some vestiges of Christianity acquired from missionaries long ago and venerates Mary, the Mother of God. But now Providence, in the person of a young Polish soldier on the run from the Russians, gives the children Mara and Marjub a way back to the faith and to a better life.

Tahko, the Young Indian Missionary The Alaskan Purchase causes an Eskimo cabin boy to journey into the Alaskan wilderness in search of his parents, with the hope of sharing the true religion with his fellow tribesmen.
Father Ren's Last Journey It was winter and a mantle of snow enveloped the land...but when two sick calls come, nothing could deter the zealous missionary from rushing to the aid of his people when they were at the point of death.
The Yang Brothers: The four sons of the old fisherman Yang find themselves on opposite sides when the eldest joins with the Large Knife Society to drive out the Christians and other foreigners active in late 19th-century China and the next son, after a decade in a missionary school, aspires to the priesthood. The uprising begins and the Christians around Lake Talo must mount a defense against the warring Boxers under the leadership of the Yang Brothers.
The Queen's Nephew: In 1551, the powerful prince Siwan invited St. Francis Xavier to come to his capital city. A celebrated religious conference took place in which the Apostle of Japan brilliantly defended the doctrine of Christ against the attacks of the bonzes. When the apostle left Japan later that year, Siwan promised to protect the missionaries and their converts. A quarter of a century later, an event occurs that leads to a powerful struggle at Siwan's court between the king and his queen, and the quest of the young noble Sikatora, the queen's nephew, to know and embrace the truth.
Children of Mary: Toward the end of the 1800's, the Abkasians, a people dwelling in the Caucasus Mountains, between the Black Sea and the Caspian, had been struggling to maintain their liberty against Russian supremacy. The clan of Urban-ok still clings to some vestiges of Christianity acquired from missionaries long ago and venerates Mary, the Mother of God. But now Providence, in the person of a young Polish soldier on the run from the Russians, gives the children Mara and Marjub a way back to the faith and to a better life.

Cherish Catholic Tradition and its essential role in Christ's indefectible Church through the ages!
Apologia for Tradition is a powerful, well-documented defense of sacred Tradition as a solution for the modern crisis in the Church. This book demonstrates how the Catholics of history and today are united in a timeless battle to defend Tradition. A battle that stretches from the sands of the Colosseum to the cultural arena of today's post-Christian era. The book shows:
- The triumph of Tradition over persecution and heresy
- Historical examples of the Church's method of adherence to Tradition
- How in every era, Christ raised up saints to defend the Tradition of Holy Mother Church
- How evil has attempted to eradicate Tradition, especially today
In the unhappy event of a conflict between the "living Magisterium" and Tradition, the primacy can be attributed to Tradition alone, for one simple reason: Tradition, which is the "living" Magisterium considered in its universality and continuity, is infallible in itself, whereas the so-called "living" Magisterium, understood as the current preaching of the ecclesiastical hierarchy, is infallible only under certain conditions. - Roberto de Mattei

The Truth of the Catholic Religion Attested by Holy Scripture and Reason
by Fr J.A. Kilian
“Everyone that shall confess me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven. But he that shall deny me before men, I will also deny him before my Father” (Mt. 10:32-33).”
In this era of disbelief any Catholic not taught how to defend the faith will surely lose it. This book provides a brief, easily-absorbed guide to the absolute bare necessities of apologetics. It gives a breakdown of Holy Scripture, the History of the Early Church, Testimonies of the Early Church Fathers, and the Rise of Protestantism.
Learn to defend these commonly attacked Catholic doctrines, sacraments and truths:
- Baptism, Confirmation, Holy Eucharist, Penance
- Extreme Unction, Holy Orders, Matrimony,
- Indulgences, Celibacy, Sacramentals,
- The Four Last Things: Death Judgment, Heaven, and Hell
- The Truth of the Catholic Religion Attested by the Writings of the Early Fathers
- A Short Accurate Account of the History of the True Religion
- The Rise of Protestantism and Historical Evidence of the Truth of Our Divine Religion
- A Few Thoughts for the Reader’s Consideration
“What is Truth?” Millions of men and women continue to ask this question since Pilate first asked it of Christ. We as Catholics must understand what we believe, why we believe it, and how to defend it. Whether you’re a cradle Catholic, a convert, a parent or a young adult - it has fallen to us to not only grow our own faith but also plant the seeds of faith in the next generation. Defend your soul and the souls of your children by giving them the knowledge to first understand and then defend our glorious Catholic Faith.

Ecumenism in the Liturgical Reform
Ecumenism in the Liturgical Reform
Includes the full text of The Problem with Liturgical Reform
by Fr Gregoire Celier
“Ecumenism is the most important and most mysterious undertaking of Our pontificate.” -Pope Paul VI
This volume has two books: Ecumenism in the Liturgical Reform and The Problem of the Liturgical Reform
Ecumenism in the Liturgical Reform was first published in 1987 in French. Now available for the first time in English, it represents a significant contribution towards understanding the role that Ecumenism played in shaping the New Mass and other post-Vatican II liturgical reforms. Relying heavily on primary sources and the words of the liturgical reformers themselves to expose just how focused they were on changing Catholic worship to make it acceptable to Protestants.
The first part examines the intentions of the reformers in general, while the second part looks at how those intentions played out in the reformulation of particular liturgical acts and prayers after Vatican II. This book is a must-read for all those looking to understand the Protestant influence on modern Catholic liturgical practice.
The Problem of the Liturgical Reform is the theological work on the Novus Ordo Missae of Pope Paul VI sent by the SSPX to Pope John Paul II in 2001. This study shows firstly, how the New Mass breaks with the liturgical tradition of the Church; secondly, that this break proceeds from a new theology on basic notions such as sin and Redemption; thirdly, that this new theology is condemned by Catholic doctrine. An essential Catholic resource to understand the current crisis.

The Liberal Illusion
The Liberal Illusion
by Louis Veuillot
Louis Veuillot's mid-19th century condemnation of liberal Catholicism throws a flood of light on the crisis of the Church and the world following the Second Vatican Council. Catholics who read "The Liberal Illusion" will grasp, once and for all, that the crisis is primarily due not to Vatican II, but to a centuries-long struggle between Revelation and Revolution. Vatican II was merely a decisive moment in that struggle when power within the Church passed from the servants of Revelation to the deluded victims of the Revolution.
This edition offers readers a pictographic overview and outline in the form of a unique fold-out insert to provide them with a thread to connect together the 38 chapters. The "Schema" at the front unfolds so the chapter numbers are exposed, giving the reader Main Parts, Subdivisions, Chapter numbers, and one-line summaries. This chart gives a horizontal breakdown of the book. "The Game Plan" is available on the reverse side. This chart-like analysis is a vertical breakdown of the main principles (whether they be right or wrong) and their consequential sub-principles which have become the battle cries of modernity.

Priestly Holiness
Priestly Holiness
by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre
After the posthumous book of Archbishop Lefebvre, The Mass of All Time, we offer now its pendant, Priestly Holiness.
"The passages brought together in this volume constitute a veritable Summa of the priesthood, independent of time and place. It is an invitation to breathe in those ultimate principles which guided Archbishop Lefebvre, so that we, too, might remain faithful to the path he traced out for us. The last chapter is dedicated to the Priestly Society of Saint Pius X, a work of the Church raised up by Providence as a beacon of Catholic Tradition; its mission both yesterday and today is to defend and protect the priesthood and the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in all their splendor and their doctrinal purity. May our Lady, Queen of Apostles and Confessors, deign to bless this work and make it an instrument of the grace of her divine son, so that priests might always increase in number and in holiness, for the greater glory of God and of His Church." -- His Excellency Bernard Fellay, Superior General, Society of Saint Pius X
Here are Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre's own words on the back cover.
"The true priest loves souls, gives himself to them, sacrifices himself for them for the love of God. He gives himself to souls as he gives them the Eucharist. He gives them Jesus by teaching and by Holy Communion. All of his priestly life thereby becomes a Mass. The holy priest lives his Mass and brings all those around him to live it, as well. He leads them to understand that all of our lives ought to be a Mass, a total oblation, a continual sacrifice of ourselves, out of love of God and out of love of neighbor. That is the ideal of the true priest, an ideal which brings him a lasting joy and peace of soul."

God, a Woman, and the Way
God, a Woman, and the Way
by Fr Raymond O.C.S.O
With time a precious commodity at Gethsemani Monastery in Kentucky, Fr. Raymond found that “a Trappist author must resolve when each day breaks to use the pieces in bringing his message of peace to the noise and commotion beyond his cloistering walls.” How well he used these fragments of time can be judged by the esteem he has won among the thousands who have read his books: The Family That Overtook Christ, The Man Who Got Even With God, The Less Traveled Road, God Goes to Murderer’s Row, Burnt Out Incense, and others.
In everything he wrote, this doctrine was illustrated. He claimed that it was not only the heart of theology but the only satisfying explanation of life, since it gives man his true dignity, his destiny, and points out his duty.
Nowhere is this more evident than in God, a Woman, and the Way where he often repeats that “We are His members; she is our Mother”—the Mediatrix of all grace who is the hope of our times. This book follows the footsteps of Our Lady on her seven sorrows during her sojourn on this earth. Fr Raymond provides us with his illustrated, meditative approach to understand the sufferings of Mary as Our Mother, Mediator and Medatrix.
