Father Adrian Fortescue's Ceremonies of the Roman Rite Described was the standard ceremonial manual for almost 50 years from 1917. Revised several times by Canon J. B. O'Connell after Fortescue's early death in 1923, the last edition was published in 1962. The Saint Austin Press has republished this edition to meet the growing demand for this authoritative guide to the celebration of the traditional Roman Rite.
