Paperback: An Open Letter To Confused Catholics (1985) is a popular study of the crisis in the Church written for all to understand.
It covers the Mass, Sacraments, Priesthood, the New Catechisms, Ecumenism, etc, and demonstrates the new spirit in the Church which has caused doubt and confusion among the faithful.
Archbishop Lefebvre also describes the negative consequences of false ecumenism.
The book has served as a beacon for thousands; certain to become a classic.

Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre is a great figure of the Church. He is remembered as the bishop who opposed the New Mass and the reforms of Vatican II. His entire life helps us to understand why.
Marcel Lefebvre was born in Tourcoing, in northern France, on 29 November 29 1905, the third of eight children. The five oldest would consecrate themselves to God: two priests and three sisters. Marcel was baptized the day after his birth. He received a deeply Catholic education within a pious, industrial middle class family. His father managed a wool spinning mill. He received his First Holy Communion on 25 December 1911. As a member of the Eucharistic Children’s Crusade, he became a Crusader in 1920.
