The Sacrifice of the Mass in Mysteries and Miracles is a famous work bestowed on the faithful by Rev. A. Reiners in 1904. The book was translated into Polish by Fr. Dr. Wojciech Galant, with the aim of unveiling to readers many of the mysteries with which the Mass of All Time had hitherto been shrouded, and to popularize the Tridentine rite as the purest and most valuable form of manifesting the faith.
The work was published in Silesia in the outhouse of Karol Miarki to protect Poles from German Protestantization.
Condition DB+/ binding slightly stained vide photo, spine after restoration, paper discoloration in places, a few minor tears, quite a NICE piece.
