With great pleasure we issue a completely new revised edition of this important book. This new edition is intended to those who want to understand the Catholic Anglicanism better and stick to its original traditions. It is still one of the most important works that describe and explain the whole Catholic faith, as the Fathers of the Church have handed down. Until now, there were only copies of the original. Since these were relatively difficult to read, we decided to publish a completely new edition. The typesetting of this new edition is completely digitalized and got a fresh new and modernized look. Every paragraph is carefully formatted which makes this book as easy to read as never before. No blurred or black spots that distract the reader anymore. While the whole content is unchanged (including the author's accentuations, illustrations, etc.), biblical citations were reformatted (using Arabic instead of Roman numerals and using a colon to separate chapter from verse) and integrated in the text. Moreover, the table of content has been repositioned and simplified for a better overview. May this new edition venerate our Lord and serve to help people and also clergy to understand the faith even better.
