"This dictionary is a treasury of information on subjects of special interest to Catholics and to all who seek information about the church. When published it was so different from anything ever attempted that it was styled The New Catholic Dictionary. Readers soon found that it was a one volume compendium of the fifteen volumes of The Catholic Encyclopedia, whence it has become known as The Catholic Encyclopedia Dictionary. How vast and valuable is its range of information appears in the Classified Contents at the end of the volume, a precious collection of over 10,000 topics, a key to the Catholic lore of the ages." - The Catholic Encyclopedia Dictionary
