This review is from: Modern Catholic Dictionary (Paperback)

Father Hardon was a theologian, historian and powerful preacher. This is an exhaustive compendium of terms written by a man who knew the Faith like the back of his hand. He knew what terms to include and exactly how to explain them to his audience. The cross-references are extremely helplful as well. I can't say enough about how valuable this book is to anyone who wants to study the Faith.
