  • About 2/3 of them are good. Anything that was published by TAN before 2009.

    There are several titles above I don't recognize, which I would NOT recommend. Remember TAN was bought (out of bankruptcy) by Good Will Publishers. They added "TAN Books" as another one of their "Imprints" along with St. Benedict Press. This happened about 2011 or so.

    If someone wants to type up a full list of titles, I can easily sort it for you. I know TAN Books very well.

    It can be tricky, because many classic TAN books have received new covers, even while Thomas A. Nelson still owned the business.

    By the way, don't fall for their RETCON regarding the meaning of TAN. It stands for Thomas A. Nelson -- not "Tuum Adoramus Nomen".
    It seems wrong to try to un-person or erase the great work of Thomas A. Nelson, a true pioneer of the Trad movement. He never got married. This business was his vocation: to re-publish pre-Vatican II Catholic books (including many which were NOT profitable, but highly necessary for seminarians, etc.) He also ran an independent chapel, which I attended for about 23 years. It's where I grew up.

    He is still living in a nursing home, ever since his stroke. I'm sure my family will let me know when his status changes.
