A Dictionary of Religious Orders by Peter Day
This dictionary covers 1,450 existing and defunct Roman Catholic, Anglican and Protestant Orders with additional entries covering the major and lesser-known chivalric Orders and many of the newer Secular Institutes and Lay Movements. Each entry is arranged in two parts. An information section lists the current headquarters, the date of foundation and name of founder, together with details of the original habit. Then there follows a brief history of the Order and an account of the present-day activities of the communities. Sub-families of the major Orders have been included.
Brings together in a single, thoroughly ecumenical volume information about a vast number of religious communities, extant or now defunct, which has hitherto been dispersed or to be found only at the end of tortuous enquiries religious and others might enjoy it for dipping in- Church Times
