Pope Pius IX was the longest reigning Pope since Saint Peter. His
reign was troubled with many things, including the necessity to
flee the Vatican shortly after the Vatican Council close din 1870.
He returned only to become the Prisoner of the Vatican, unable to
leave the little area that eventually became the Vatican City
State. Although this book is written mainly for children, . It is
also interesting reading for adults as well. St. Alphonsus writes:
"a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a
monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of
Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the
Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals ' (Matthew 18:7).
Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in
novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of
immodesty " We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of
good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the
market. We ask for your assistance and prayers. This book is a
photographic reprint of the original The original has been
inspected and many imperfections in the existing copy have been
corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to remain faithful to
the original in both photographic reproductions and in textual
reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic reproductions are
given a page by page inspection, whereas textual reproductions are
proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.
