This book is the result of a life-time of interest in the Crosiers
and presents the history in England and France of this religious
Order, known officially as the Canons Regular of the Order of the
Holy Cross. The core of the book is two chapters presenting the
history of the Crosier in England (there called the Crutched
Friars) and and in France (there known as the Croisiers). A first
chapter discuses the origin and early years of the Crosier Order,
its place among other orders of the Holy Cross and its
spirituality. Then after the core of the book, the Afterword begins
with a very short history of the Crosiers from the French
Revolution to Vatican II. This is followed by a partial history of
the Crosiers from Vatican II to the present, concentrating on the
history of the Crosier Order in the United States. The third part
presents a series of reflections on chapters one through three. The
final part of the Afterword contains reflections on the present
state of the Crosiers in light of its past.
