Praying in Pine Straw immerses listeners in the raw, rollicking, and deeply human world of Alabama's camp meetings—a Southern tradition where fire-and-brimstone preaching echoed through pine forests and where faith was often accompanied by contradiction.

First published in 1925, The Everlasting Man is in many ways a direct rebuttal to H.G. Wells’s The Outline of History, wherein he states that man is merely a development from animal life, and that Jesus was just a charismatic figure. Although a popular secular idea at the time, Chesterton believed otherwise. He argued that in order to understand both humanity and history, we ought first to recognise the uniqueness of both man and Christ.

Les soldats du pape (1860-1867)", d'Oscar de Poli, est un récit épique et émouvant qui retrace la saga héroïque des volontaires pontificaux, ces "soldats de la foi" qui défendirent le Pape Pie IX contre l'invasion garibaldienne. Écrit par un vétéran de Castelfidardo, ce modeste témoignage vise à honorer les vainqueurs de Nerola, Acquapendente, Viterbe, Farnese et Mentana, dans un drame sanglant opposant la Croix à la Révolution antireligieuse.

« La Ménagerie du Vatican », de Jean de Bonnefon, est une satire mordante et irrévérencieuse qui soulève le voile sur la cour pontificale, dépeinte comme un zoo doré de vanités ecclésiastiques.
