Manual for Marian Devotion
Excellent compilation of Marian-related historical texts, Mary's place in the Liturgy as well as prayers and poems. The introductory section on "Preparing for Marian Devotion" is also very timely for those less familiar with Marian Devotion. As a result of water in my home following broken ceiling pipes, I lost my initial copy of this text which was gifted (from the authors; the congregation) to those of us on a May, 2017 Dominicans of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist retreat in Texas. I am elated to have a new copy! That retreat, this text and these Dominican sisters and their knowledge of the Blessed Mother and their devotion to this part of our Catholic heritage "changed the direction of my life"! Whenever I need to revisit the beginning of an in-depth introduction of the Blessed Mother into my prayer life, I turn to this text! Strongly recommended as "a keeper"certain to enrich one;s prayer life!

Great addition
I love collecting books on Marian devotion, and this has been a beautiful addition to our library. User-friendly, easy to bring along in a purse, and as lovely as Our Lady should be presented.
