"True Devotion to Mary" is universally acclaimed as the single
greatest and most theologically authoritative book on the Blessed
Virgin Mary ever to have been written. This work has had a
tremendous impact on a number of the most significant and
influential popes, from the late 19th Century right down to our own
times: (1) Pope Leo XIII beatified de Montfort in 1888, adopted de
Montfort's Mariological terminology (calling Mary the "Mediatrix"
and "Co-Redemptrix"), and wrote no less than ten encyclicals on the
Rosary; (2) Pope Saint Pius X, in 1904, wrote his key Marian
encyclical, "Ad Diem Illum," adopting much of the language and
sentiment of de Montfort's book, "True Devotion," and even granted
the Apostolic Blessing to all who would read de Montfort's great
treatise on the Blessed Virgin (that is, the book you now hold in
your hands ); (3) Pope Pius XII, also a deeply Marian pope,
canonized de Montfort in 1947, raising him to the honors of the
altar; and (4) our beloved Blessed Pope John Paul II, as many know,
took his papal motto, "Totus Tuus," from de Montfort's Latin prayer
of total consecration to the Blessed Virgin, stating that his
reading of "True Devotion" marked a "decisive turning point" in his
life and spirituality that would forever shape his person,
priesthood and papacy. There has even been serious speculation
regarding de Montfort being made a Doctor of the Church Clearly,
this book is the definitive MUST READ for every Catholic Christian
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.

The author states: "Therefore I have written this little Book. I
have tried to tell you all I know about the Precious Blood, all
that many years of hard study and much thought have enabled me to
learn; and I have tried to tell it you as easily and as simply as I
could. I thought I could not please you better than by this. I
thought I could not show my gratitude to our Blessed Redeemer
better than by striving to increase a devotion whieh he himself, by
his blessing on the Confraternity, has shown to be so pleasing to
him. I believed we could not repay the paternal kindness of the
Sovereign Pontiff, our Father and Founder, who bas enriched us with
Indulgences, in a manner more welcome to himself than by an effort
to propagato the devotion to the Precious Blood, in whose honor he
has established a new feast in the Church of God. I know that I
could not please myself better, than by magnifying the Precious
Blood, which of all the glorious objects of Catholic devotion has
been for years the dearest to my heart. Accept, then, this little
but loving gift. Let it stand as a memorial of my love of you, of
your love of Jesus, of the filial devotion of both of us to the
Holy Father, and of our united thanksgivings to our Blessed Savior
for his goodness to our Confraternity, and for our salvation
through his Blood."
