Title: Ceremonial of Bishops
Subtitle: revised by decree of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council and published by authority of Pope John Paul II
Description: The reform of liturgical rites ordered by the Second Vatican Council necessitated a revision of the *Caeremoniale Episcoporum*, published in 1886. The objective of this ceremonial is to provide a liturgy for bishops that will stand as a model for all other celebrations.

The eight divisions of the book cover everything from the Mass through liturgical celebrations in connection with the government of a diocese. This is a valued reference for bishops, masters of ceremonies, diocesan liturgical offices, seminary libraries, and others.
