There has been a long-felt need of a book which would be a supplement to the doctrinal catechisms--a book which would give, in a form adapted to the classroom, a thorough explanation of the external practices of our Church; that is, Her government, clergy, religious communities, sacramentals, ceremonies, festivals, and devotions. The present work is intended to supply this need. It embodies a fairly complete and detailed explanation and history of all that makes our
Church a Visible Church.
