(4.7 stars; 20 reviews)

A catechism is a summary of the principles of Christian religion and articles of the faith. The Baltimore Catechism specifically was the de facto standard Catholic school text in the United States from 1885 to the late 1960s. It was the first such catechism written for Catholics in North America, replacing a translation of Bellarmine's Small Catechism. The Baltimore Catechism remained in use in nearly all Catholic schools until many moved away from catechism-based education, though it is still used up to this day in some.

Great book for all Catholics


(5 stars)

Especially those who are interested in the traditional aspects of the faith as opposed to the modernism pervading the Roman Church today. I was surprised to see how similar the mass is to the Anglo Catholic missal in the 1928 BCP. A pleasant and wonderful surprise is also found in the final chapter. The reader, or should I say chorister, did a fantastic job bringing the hymns to life. Would love it if she did an entire hymnal on LibriVox.

Poorly read in parts


(2 stars)

Poor enunciation in places makes it hard to understand.


(4 stars)

The comment on the Vatican in 1922 May not have been accurate

I enjoyed reviewing the Baltimore Catechism.
