Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Complete Catalogue of Catholic Literature: Containing All Catholic Books Published in the United States, Together With a Selection From the Catalogues of the Catholic Publishers of England and Ireland
For a long time we have realized the pressing need of a catalogue of general Catholic literature, one that would con tain the books of all the Catholic publishers, aszwell as those obtainable from other sources. It seems to us opportune that such a catalogue should be forthcoming, especially at this time, when movements for more extended reading of Catholic literature are general throughout the country. For the purpose of supplying this need, we take pleasure in presenting what we believe to be the most complete catalogue and price-list of general Catholic literature published in the United States. It is not our purpose to include all books by Catholic authors, such as for example, books of merely local interest, or technical books as such, but only those that are of general interest to Catholic readers. In addition, we have included a limited number of books by non-catholic authors, which by their worth we consider entitled to a place in this list. Such books are designated by the letters near the author's name.
