Notes: Qasha Shmuel Dawid was born in Gavilan, Iran in 1872. In 1913 he became priest of St. Ephrem parish in Chicago. This was the first Chaldean Catholic parish to be formed in the United States. Qasha Shmuel developed his own printing type and published several books in the modern Assyrian language in Chicago before his death in 1930. This volume contains a modern Assyrian translation of “The Faith of Our Fathers” by Cardinal James Gibbons (1834-1921), Archbishop of Baltimore. This book was a very popular and widely read exposition of Catholic doctrine.
