Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0895552000, Paperback)

Father John A. Nageleisen has written the best book on Purgatory ever to come into our hands. Unbelievable the amount of knowledge and facts it contains. Proofs from Scripture on the existence, location and spiritual torments of Purgatory. Tells what the fire is like, how it torments, etc. Extremely sobering. Gives the conditions of the Suffering Souls as to pain, sense, consolations, position, and unknown punishments in Purgatory. Analyzes the credibility of departed souls that have returned to warn those on earth. Includes the means of relieving the Poor Souls - holy water, candles, mass, prayers, alms, fasting, Holy Communion, the Blessed Mother, the saints, etc. Covers the motives for helping the Poor Souls, and how they assist their benefactors in both spiritual and temporal affairs. How they assist us in death and before the Tribunal of Judgement if we have helped them. Contains novenas, prayers, litanies, rosaries and the Seven Offerings of the Most Precious Blood for the Suffering Souls. They await our charity. Beautiful illustrations. Imprimatur of several bishops
