(A guarantee from the Church that the publication is free from moral or doctrinal errors.) Would make a wonderful gift for any Roman Catholic interested in the old rite and the Mass of Ages. I cannot recommend this highly enough. I bought this for my own personal use.

This missal certainly superceded my expectations. So comprehensive. I like that the Mass is in bigger print than the rest. Very well laid out. Great prayers. nothing more I could have wished for. Probably too hard to manage if you are new to Latin Mass so a booklet would be better to start with.

This was a very reasonable price, is compact but has all the texts for daily and Sunday Masses. The pages are not as thin as my original pre-1962 one but for the price it is a bargain and provides all that one needs for following the mass in the Extraordinary Form.

Just as described. Beautiful binding.Delivery was quicker than expected

Just what I was looking for

This was exactly what I asked for. It arrived in perfect condition and promptly.

I purchased this missal as a gift for my sister. She say's that it is a good all around missal and likes the fact that Latin as well as English is included in the text. I have not used latin since being an altar boy.I hope that amazon.co.uk get more of these missals in stock so that i may have the option to purchase one for myself.
