Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is OUT OF PRINT and a Christian biography of Mary, Mother of Jesus written by BISHOP FULTON J. SHEEN--the book is a Fourth Printing published in 1952 and a HARDCOVER with the ORIGINAL DUSTJACKET and is NOT a remainder copy and NOT price-clipped, with the original $3.50 price in the upper corner of the front inner flap. This book is in SUPERB and UNREAD condition and the book itself has slight dings on the spine tips and a VERY slight discolored spot on the lower page edge at the spine tip but NO other significant imperfections; the dustjacket has very small dings and very small tears on the spine tips and lower edge of the front surface, a few tiny tears on the upper and lower edges of the back surface, a small tear on the lower left edge of the front surface and just light shelfwear otherwise but no other significant flaws! The book is titled The World's First Love and it was written by FULTON J. SHEEN; it was published by McGraw-Hill Book Company in 1952 and is a 4th Printing copy.With his characteristic eloquence and brilliance, Fulton J. Sheen presents a moving portrayal of the Blessed Virgin Mary that combines deep spirituality with history, philosophy and theology. All the major aspects and events of Mary's life are lovingly portrayed in this word portrait that is a never failing source of information, consolation and inspiration. Sheen also gives profound insights into all the Marian beliefs ranging from the Immaculate Conception to the Assumption to the miracle of Our Lady of Fatima. While considering the different phases of Mary's life, Bishop Sheen discusses various problems common to mankind of every age and reveals clearly that every problem can be resolved. He emphasizes the unique dignity, strength and gifts of women and their ability to help heal the world's problems. Sheen stresses mankind's need of the Mother of God and her burning love for all her children. The great resurgence of devotion to Mary is God's way of emphasizing the worth and dignity of every person against the false doctrines that have so confused the modern world.A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!
