Finding that modern versions of the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary did not move my heart, and knowing how much I loved the Ave, Maris Stella hymn as indulgenced by Pope Leo XIII in 1888, I searched through many editions of the Little Office hoping to find the same version used at Vespers.
I finally found this Baronius Press edition (copyright 2007; published in 2022), and it contains virtually the exact version I had been searching for, differing by only a word or two. My hunch was correct. Just as I love this version of the Ave, Maris Stella, I also love the entire book. The language flows beautifully, and the prayers move the heart.
When I ordered the book, the description stated that it was leather. To be honest, I was skeptical because many companies use terms such as “leather-like” or other wording that can be misleading. However, the moment I opened the package and smelled the cover, I knew it was genuine leather. The binding is also excellent—as well made as one could hope for. I am very pleased with this edition.

I received this exquisite prayer book beautifully packaged, and the kind people at Latin Mass Helper even included a gorgeous card, handwritten, thanking me personally for my order. Not only that, but the card was so beautiful I hung it above my desk. I will happily order from them again, and the book I ordered has already enriched my prayer life and is a constant companion. I feel even more deeply connected to the timeless prayers of our Church. Thank you to all the wonderful people who took such personalized care with my order.

This genuine leather missal cover is an excellent product—beautifully made, practical, and clearly designed with the Latin Mass faithful in mind. The leather feels high-quality and durable, the fit is tailored for popular TLM missals, and the added ribbons, elastic bands, and holy card window are especially thoughtful features. It provides strong protection while also giving the missal a dignified and elegant appearance. Overall, it is a wonderful investment and a very fitting accessory for anyone who treasures their missal.

Thank you for all of the items that I bought. Everything came in pristine condition shrink wrapped, bubble wrapped, as well as a sweet and thoughtful hand written note. I have told numerous members of church, friends, family and co workers. I will continue to buy from you for all of my Catholic books. Thank you so much for all that you are doing! Great prices, prestine condition and knowing it comes from believers makes it mean that much more! God bless you all!

It is easy to follow. It includes hymns. English and Latin option. Fits in my purse. I’m glad to have found this little treasure!
