Read the International Best-seller that European Feminists Tried to Ban! Marry Him and Be Submissive COSTANZA MIRIANO
Wives, be submissive? Really? Well, yeah…and here’s why: It will lead to a more fulfilling marriage and life! In Marry Him and Be Submissive, Costanza Miriano dishes on all the hurdles and difficulties that real women face in dating, marriage, and motherhood. In a series of letters to her closest friends, Miriano offers sage, frank, and hilarious advice on: • Whether to keep waiting to get married (No! Dive in! You’ll never be 100% “ready.”) • How to stop worrying about all the cushy “first world problems” and embrace the true joys of family life (even if it means cutting back on Facebook a little) • What it means—really means—when your husband doesn’t seem to be listening (he’s probably thinking about soccer, but he still loves you) • How to maintain your life after pregnancy (you can’t! It’s over! But your new life will be so much better) • How to get through the day after you realize your kids went out with dirty underwear, or worse, no underwear (hint: wine helps) Miriano boldly, playfully, and profoundly takes the lives and loves of modern women head on, and shows how true marital happiness and holiness is found in submission. And she shows how submission—real, true submission, which is about love, humility, and support—will lead you to salvation. Far from belittling women, it empowers them (and their families) in ways that secular feminism can only dream of.

Discover an England that is charged with the grandeur of God Merrie England: A Journey Through the Shire JOSEPH PEARCE
Join Joseph Pearce on a journey into the real Shire—a voyage into the mysterious presence of an England which is more real than the one you are accustomed to seeing, the one which seems to be in terminal decline. The England Pearce wants us to know is an enchanted and unchanging place, full of ghosts who are as alive as the saints. It is an England that is rural, sacramental, liturgical, local, beautiful…a place “charged with the grandeur of God”. In this wonder-filled journey, Joseph Pearce shows us the true England through the splendor of the Good, the True, and the Beautiful. He shows us an England that can never die, not because it lingers like a fading coal in the memory of mortal men, but because it exists as a beautiful flower in the Gardens of Eternity.

All Christians know his name. Few truly know the man. Saint Francis of Assisi: Passion, Poverty & the Man Who Transformed the Church BRET THOMAN, OFS
Francis of Assisi was not even five feet tall. He was not well educated. And yet he is the one saint commonly recognized as Alter Christus, the “other Christ.” Francis is not just any saint—he’s a saint for everyone, whatever your place or position in life. But do we really know him? Who was this man at his core? What was it that thrust this little man from a little town to the heights of sanctity, into a place of high honor among the celestial court? In this riveting biography, author Bret Thoman accomplishes what few biographers have. He pierces the inner life of Francis, revealing his deepest passions, his unquenchable love for poverty, and his unshakable grip on the core of the Gospel. The life of Francis, so often festooned with spectacle and miracle, is in reality the story of a soul yearning for God in every moment and glimpsing His presence in all creation. If you want to see the hidden life of the greatest saint, if you want to hear his thoughts, if you want to feel the fervor that blazed within his soul, you must read St. Francis of Assisi: Passion, Poverty, and the Man who Transformed the Catholic Church.

These 365 reflections, drawn from their writings, reveal Mary’s role in God’s plan, the virtues she so perfectly models, and the rich benefits of Marian devotion.

“...a call to true heroism for the generations to come...” —David Daleiden, The Center for Medical Progress
Available Nov. 2016
Racketeer for Life JOSEPH M. SCHEIDLER WITH PETER M. SCHEIDLER
Joseph M. Scheidler has fought for the unborn since the Supreme Court allowed abortion on demand with its 1973 Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton rulings. He was the target of a lawsuit brought by the National Organization for Women under federal racketeering laws. Found guilty in 1998, Scheidler triumphed twice in appeals before the Supreme Court in 2003 and again in 2006. Racketeer for Life explains how a former Benedictine monk and journalism professor was drawn into pro-life activism and describes his part in the history of the pro-life movement in the United States. Conversations, protests, and battles with clinic directors, doctors, politicians, judges, media personalities, and even other pro-lifers are woven together in this engaging account of the efforts of Scheidler and other activists to publicize the horrors of abortion, influence legislation, and, ultimately, to save lives. Pro-life work has taken Scheidler around the globe. He’s crossed paths with some of the most famous leaders in recent decades, from President Ronald Reagan to St. John Paul II. Join sit-ins at abortion clinics, take part in rallies, listen to heated debates, and sit in a federal courtroom with one of the most dedicated warriors in the fight for the unborn as he shares his energy, wit, and faith in this engaging memoir.

Publisher’s Message Dear Friends, As the presidential elections approach, I am reminded that the task of a Christian is to bring Christ into the world. This is a daunting task, especially in an age of turmoil and violence, confusion and immorality. That’s one reason I am thrilled to bring you Racketeer for Life, (pg 29) the memoirs of my friend Joseph Scheidler. Joe’s story is one of a relentless drive to fight for the lives of the unborn, no matter the costs, and they have often been steep. Joe’s story is amazing, but it’s not just his story, it’s the story of the ProLife movement. It’s a roadmap for us to bring morality, compassion, and sanity back to an insane world. Speaking of insanity, have you noticed simple ideas like “male” and “female” have become matters of choice? If it wasn’t so sad, it would be humorous. Family life has been turned upside down. So, TAN brings you a lighthearted yet insightful new title, Marry Him and Be Submissive (pg 7) by Costanza Miriano. This hilarious guide to reclaiming marriage and family caused a firestorm in Europe. Angry mobs of feminist (and a few confused men) held protests, tore the book in half, and tried to ban it from society.
Page 28
Page 9
All the while, beautiful Costanza, a professional journalist, wife and mother, laughed her way to the bestseller list. Who better to discuss “submissiveness” than a professional journalist at the top of her game? The world needs a thousand more Joe Scheidlers and a thousand more Costanza Mirianos. They put their faith into action. They fight against a corrupt and sinful world that is determined to destroy families. And we at TAN Books join the fight. We ask only one thing of you, our dear readers: that you become a saint.

The ultimate Baptism gift! First Steps First Steps is a baby journal with a unique, refreshing spiritual focus. It encourages families to cultivate and record a child’s “journey of faith and parish life,” from birth and Baptism all the way to First Reconciliation. Parents fill the book with photos and answers to questions about the significant events and developments in a child’s first seven years. As they do, they are prompted to consider the child’s significance as the fruit of their love; the meaning of Baptism as the child’s “spiritual birthday”; signs of the child’s spiritual growth, year by year; and the critical role of parish life in raising the child in the Faith. Beautifully designed and illustrated, First Steps makes a perfect gift for the birth or Baptism of a child. Its emphasis on parish life makes it especially attractive as a pastoral gift on those occasions. It provides Catholic parents a thoughtful, faith-deepening way to tell the story of how a child came to grow, not just in age, but in grace.
