Summary: To Conservative Catholics
Comment: If you are a Conservative Catholic who has just witnessed another clown Mass, or had to put up with a "homily" from Sr. Snakebite, or if you are sick of seeing laypersons handling the True Presence with their grubby hands, here is my advise: buy this book, and try a traditional Roman Rite Mass (Tridentine). Try to go to an FSSP Mass, but you can go to an SPX also. Do some research on the web and you will see that you can attend an SPX Mass and fulfill your Sunday obligation - it is not a sin to attend. As for the bad review from the neo-Catholic, please consider this statement which the Church has decreed heretical: "17. Good hope at least is to be entertained of the eternal salvation of all those who are not at all in the true Church of Christ. (Condemned in the Syllabus of Errors)". Does JPII still condemn this? If not, then he is in error.

Summary: The Great Facade... a great read!
Comment: I found this book very useful in helping me understand Catholic Traditionalism, the reasons for it, and the arguments in its favour. Mr Ferrara and Dr Woods write in a very clear and convincing style, which can be greatly refreshing to those of us who are used to muddling our way through the confused and impenetrable writings issued by the Catholic Church since Vatican II. Unlike other books on the subject, Ferrara and Woods avoid the temptation to focus solely on one area of post-conciliar controversy (e.g., the Mass, religious liberty), instead they skilfully navigate the reader through the many foundational issues raised by traditionalists, and this with the help of the limp arguments raised by what they describe as 'Neo-Catholics'. Not being an American I was quite unfamiliar with Neo-Catholicism beforehand, but Ferrara and Woods give a very informative outline of the movement before going on to demonstrate just how contradictory and error-riddled it is. I found their analysis both brilliant and devastating, and it even includes great flashes of humour, many of which had me literally laughing out loud!
I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone seeking a good general treatment of Catholic Traditionalism and the arguments in its favour. Because of its comprehensiveness and assessable style I believe the book would be very useful for those seeking a good thorough introduction to the whole Catholic Traditionalist movement.

Summary: Understanding the Traditionalist movement
Comment: This book gives insight into what the whole traditionalist fuzz is about. Why do some people long for the restoration of the Latin mass? What has happened to the Church over the last 40 years? The answers while interesting are a bit one sided.
