A Short Catechism

A Short Catechism is a religious book that provides a concise summary of Catholic beliefs and practices. The book is an extract from two other catechisms: the Douay Catechism and the Historical Catechism of M. L�������Abbe Fleury. The Douay Catechism was a popular Catholic catechism in the 17th century, while the Historical Catechism of M. L�������Abbe Fleury was a comprehensive catechism that covered the history of the Catholic Church. The Short Catechism covers the basic tenets of the Catholic faith, including the nature of God, the Trinity, the sacraments, and the importance of prayer and good works. It also covers the Ten Commandments and the virtues that Catholics should strive to embody. The author of the book, Claude Fleury, was a French historian and theologian who lived in the 17th and 18th centuries. He was a prominent member of the French Catholic Church and wrote extensively on the history of the Church and on religious education. Overall, A Short Catechism is a valuable resource for Catholics looking to deepen their understanding of their faith, as well as for anyone interested in the history of Catholicism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
