Bible
by Canon Alfred Weber
“His Holiness Pope Pius X desires me to send you His thanks … for having raised an outstanding monument of sacred literature on the foundation of the Holy Gospels.” (Letter of Cardinal Merry del Val to Canon Weber.)
Have you ever wished you could read all four Gospels in one single, unbroken narrative? Canon Alfred Weber allows you to do just that thanks to his outstanding work The Four Gospels in One.
Using the words of the Evangelists themselves and relying on the harmonization of the best Scriptural scholars, Weber weaves the four Gospel texts into one seamless account, allowing us to accompany Our Lord Jesus Christ at every step of His earthly life, from the Incarnation right through to the Ascension.
Illustrated by the beautiful engravings of Gustave Doré, supplemented by copious and informative notes from the Fathers and great Ecclesiastical writers, as well as by maps and plans of Palestine and Jerusalem in the first century, this wonderful book deserves a place in every Catholic home.

Father James Wathen, OSJ - Small booklet - 40 Pages
This small book was written to encourage the Catholic layman to read Holy Scripture regularly.
"The Scriptures are an inexhaustible treasure-trove of revelation,
mystery, and wisdom; and the people need the fruits of scholarly
learning and research. But, mainly, the scholar’s work is on "fine
points," facets and minutiae which few can begin to appreciate.
Rather, this is to encourage everyone to resort to the Scriptures as
the ideal book of devotion, instruction, and moral guidance
which it was meant to be."
