Clearly presenting all the commonly used services in a practical way, this volume makes them accessible not only to clergy, but also to liturgical students and those who are unfamiliar to the Church. Compiler and translator Isabel Florence Hapgood uses the Old Church-Slavonic books of the Russian Church rather than the original Greek, to produce English-language versions of all the ordinarily required services. This volume makes a valuable library addition for anyone seeking deeper understanding of the worship services of the Eastern Christian tradition and the Russian Church in America.
