NEW PUBLICATIONS IN ENGLISH ON MARY The article Mary on the Blessed Virgin in the 1958 revision of Encyclopedia Brittanica is highly objective and most acceptable to all readers. • Mary set in her own times is the objective of Joseph Patsch's Our Lady in the Gospels (london: Burns-Oates). • Sheed and Ward have produced two very special children's books that should delight parents as well as the youngsters with a simple, clear and thoroughly informative presentation of Joseph by Wilfrid Sheed and Mary by Sr. Mary Jean Dorey, O.P. e Back in print and revised is Mary Fabyn Windeatt's Our Lady's Slave, the story of Grignon de Montfort, having special appeal to upper grade and teen-age readers (Grail). e Newman Press puts Paul Doncoeur's Our Lady in Human Life and Hugh Ross Williamson's The Challenge of Bern•dette in their first American editions. Both are popular, the second dealing with the lourdes apparitions and miracles. • A doctoral dissertation by Father William Cole, S.M., on the Spiritual Maternity of Mary According to Father Chaminade gives, in addition to Fr. Chaminade's original thought on the subject, a thorough orientation on the spiritual maternity and a valuable bibliography. The work may be obtained from the author, University of Dayton. • C. X. Friethoff, O.P.'s A Complete Mariology has recently appeared in England and now is obtainable through Newman Press' American Edition. e A bargain in good writing and excellent photography is had in the official lourdes Centenary book, Bernadette by Marcelle Auclair and Englished by Mother Kathryn Sullivan, R.S.C.J. (Desclee). e John Beever's pocketbook Lourdes (london: St. Paul) as well as Francis Parkinson Keyes's Bernadette of Lourdes (Burns-Oates, originally published as The Sublime Shepherdess) inexpensively and effectively bring us the message of the lourdes Virgin.
