Purchase options and add-ons

Through the centuries, Our Blessed Lady has appeared frequently on earth with messages of warning, hope, and consolation for humanity--but never more frequently than in the last two centuries. Heralded as the Marian Age, the past two hundred years have been blessed with numerous appearances of Our Lady, each one offering messages of inspiration and hope and urging the world to return to the love of God through prayer, penance, and reparation for sins.

A Woman Clothed with the Sun considers the seven most significant apparitions of Our Lady in the past two centuries: that of the Miraculous Medal at Paris, those at La Salette, Lourdes, Knock, Fatima, Beauraing, Banneux--and also the sixteenth-century appearance of Mary at Guadalupe with its profound message for Americans. The historical background of each apparition is given, the vision itself described, and Mary's messages are quoted by writers distinguished for their special knowledge of the apparitions and their literary excellence. In his introductory chapter, editory John J. Delaney traces the relationships between the apparitions and provides a penetrating analysis of their significance.

Recipient of the Marian Library Medal, A Woman Clothed with the Sun has been critically acclaimed as the one book on Our Lady that should be read by everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to reacquaint or introduce someone to Mary
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2016

Perfect collection of the most significant Marian apparitions. I'd asked in some groups I was in if anyone knew of a single book with most of the approved apparitions and got no replies. Happily I stumbled upon this book in our church library but the print was small and went so far into the binding that I couldn't read it. This printing has a larger font and none of the other problems. I'm going to let my kids read it too. The copyright is old but the stories still read well and most are matter of fact presentations without a lot of interpretations. I also liked the TOC becuase it listed the place, the apparitions commonly used name and the year. It was easy to flip back and remind myself of the chronology. Great book to give to a generation that seems to have forgotten our Blessed Mother and her urgent requests to pray for the conversion of sinners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, compact Marian apparition library.
Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2005
Verified Purchase
That's exactly what I was looking for. I didn't want to read lengthy volumes on each apparition, but I wanted a solid account of each, especially the most important, recent, Church approved ones.

And that is exactly what this book is. Yes, pictures would have been lovely, but not many artists can do Our Lady anything close to justice.

It's difficult to imagaine anyone being able to read these factual, very touching accounts and not be moved to not only belief in them, but come away with a strong determination to do what the Blessed Virgin Mary asks of us all. Come back to the faith and live it! Very inspiring book.

Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2009

This is hands down the best book on appearances on earth by the Blessed Virgin Mary which I have ever read. It contains eight significant visions with each narrative written by an expert on that particular appearance. I first encountered this marvelous book while still in grade school when a parish priest recommended it to my mother. I am so glad it is still available for purchase to share with one another. I gave it as part of a confirmation gift, and it is not the first time I have done so.

This is a good example of 19th and 20th century UAP phenomenon (all appearances of “Mary” are accompanied by bright lights, rushing winds, thunderclaps, etc).

This is a book I've read and re-read over and over again. I've also bought it as gifts for friends and family. Well worth the read! When I went to the shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, I found that I actually knew more about Our Lady's appearance to Juan Diego than our Mexican guide did...all because of this wonderful book.

This is my fourth copy of this book. People ask to borrow it and often keep it or pass it on to others. I think it shows how much Jesus loves us that he sends his mother to us to guide us.

A wonderful, well-researched book giving information in story-format of the 8 best known and accepted apparitions by the Blessed Virgin Mary. A very interesting read which is well written and one that I didn't want to end. I appreciate this is a short review but it really is un-necessary to add more.
