The irrepresible Scott Bloch and the indefatigable Fr. C. J. McCloskey have teamed up with Saint Benedict Press to produce a new anthology of “essential Belloc”. A description of this exciting new title, which is due to be publsihed this spring, is inserted below. If you have never read any Belloc this might be a good place to rectify the sin of omission:
The Essential Belloc
A Prophet for Our Times
Copy
“More than any other man, Hilaire Belloc made the English-speaking Catholic world in which we all live”
-Frank Sheed
He was a poet, a polemicist, and a prose stylist without peer, but Hilaire Belloc (1870-1954) was first and above all a mighty champion of the Catholic faith. With his brave (and sometimes brash) defenses of Catholic civilization, he taught an entire generation of Catholics never to stand for being treated as second-class citizens in the predominantly Protestant Anglosphere.
Today, with the Faith once again suffering scorn and contempt from all sides, it is time to re-discover this Catholic champion.
The Essential Belloc draws upon the prolific writer’s works (he authored more than 140 books, plus countless articles, pamphlets, and letters) to provide a comprehensive overview of his ideas, style, and personality. More than just a collection of quotes, these pages offer rich samplings from Belloc’s writings, affording you a solid introduction to his thoughts on:
- The foundational link between Western culture and the Catholic faith
- The anti-Catholic historical myths that the English-speaking world has come to accept as fact
- The limits-and dangers-of science that has abandoned faith in God
- The latent power and future menace of militant Islam
- The characteristic faults of political and economic systems that deviate from Catholic principles
- The particular charms of places throughout the world: their towns and roads, their churches and inns
- The love of good food, wine, and ale, and the songs of camaraderie that go with them
And more-plus delightful examples of Belloc’s poetry and wit.
Belloc himself once remarked that “genius is the ability to think in a very large number of categories.” In The Essential Belloc you will marvel at how well he fits that definition, and be edified by the breadth of his brilliance-and its continuing relevance for the modern world.

It seems to me that there has always been a link between Western Society and the Catholic faith. Whether people like it or not, it exists and is there.

I’ve never heard much about using an actual essential oil, but vitamin E oil is what is most often recommended. Vitamin E is excellent for healing and strengthening skin. I did a little internet search and also found a site that recommends rose oil and jojoba.
