How to Book Of Sacramentals

Here's another good Catholic 'How-To' book.

This one is "The How-To Book of Sacramentals" by Ann Ball.

I'm part way through this book and must say I'm getting a lot out of it.

It gives step-by-step guidelines on the various sacraments and supplies the history of the sacraments. I should really say 'sacramentals', as they are different from the sacraments. This book goes into blessings, gestures, things designated for sacred purposes, sacred places, relics, crucifixes and crosses, water, bread, images, medals, clothing and jewelry, scapulars and badges, chaplets, rosaries, etc.
