  • Greetings!

    Can anyone recommend a book that explains the origin, rubrics, kinds, and symbolism of the Latin Rite liturgical vestments? 

    Thanks!

    Yer the best! Many thanks! I'm trying to very gently and patiently convert my poor, miserable brother. In your charity, please pray for him!!! He asked a question about vestments, and my google search turned up nothing that I thought might help him. God bless you!
