I like reading books that were printed way back 1800’s and before.

The Imitation of Christ

It has been said that this book is second only to the Bible, and that every Catholic should have a copy and read it. It’s a beautiful and inspirational resource.

This zippered edition is a joy to use. The smallish size, the not-too-small font, the frequent drawings, the zippered protection of the pages; all this adds together with the rich content of the Imitation to make this book a blessing to own and use.
