Best Book on Liturgy by a Catholic Philosopher

Buy it.

Understand it.

Revel in it.  

Von Hildebrand, a convert to Catholicism, wrote it in just twenty-three days.

As he put it in his Memoirs, "The fruit was ripe; all I needed to do was to pluck it from the tree."  

He touches on all that is so relevant today:

The organic element in the Liturgy, continuity in the Liturgy, the classical spirit in the Liturgy, Reverence in Liturgy, Discretio in Liturgy, etc. 

Thank God for (authentic) Catholic intellectuals.  Lord, grant us more.
