Can anyone recommend

[Mark1124]

a good book on the Eucharist? I’ve got a pretty good collection of books on Mary, the lives of the saints, the Passion, etc., but almost nothing on the Eucharist.

Sorry I have not read this one…but I have heard it highly recommended by Patrick Madrid (an excellent catholic apologist whose opinion I trust) on at least one ocasion. I plan to read it some day.

The Hidden Manna by Rev. James T. O’Connor

I’m sorry to be little to know help, but a book I’ve been interested in (but haven’t had a chance to buy) is The Mass of the Early Christians by Mike Aquilina. I don’t know how it is, orthodox-wise, but it certainly sounds interesting.

Here’s a link to it on Amazon.com:
amazon.com/Mass-Early-Christians-Mike-Aquilina/dp/1592763200/ref=tmm_pap_title_0

EDIT: Here’s some other books that I’ve just noticed. Again, I haven’t read them, but they sound like they’re close to what you’re looking for. And one of them is from a Cardinal, so it has to be good!

The Lamb’s Supper by Scott Hahn

Here are some excellent ones by Pope Benedict XVI:

God is Near
Feast of Faith
A New Song for the Lord
The Spirit of the Liturgy

You can’t go wrong with Pope Benedict XVI/Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger!!!

“Not by Bread Alone” by Robert A. Sungenis

 

[Jean_Anthony]

The Holy Eucharist by St. Alphonsus Liguori. The webpage also shows a few other titles for you to consider.

I’ll second “The Lamb’s Supper” from Hahn. I’d also like to recommend Jurgen’s three volume set “Faith of the Early Fathers” for pretty much everything and anything.
