Coles The Stations of the Cross: Restored Classics to Go Edition at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

Herbert Thurston's The Stations of the Cross offers a learned and reverent history of one of Catholic devotion's most cherished practices. He presents the Way of the Cross as a "miniature pilgrimage," a humble substitute for more exacting disciplines, much as the Rosary and scapular made sacred imitation accessible to ordinary believers. Yet the book is more than a devotional guide: it traces how medieval piety, pilgrimage, and imaginative tradition gradually shaped the familiar fourteen Stations. Thurston follows the devotion from Jerusalem's ancient holy places, through witnesses such as the Bordeaux pilgrim, St. Jerome, and Lady Egeria, to local recreations of the Holy Land in churches and chapels across Europe. He examines symbolic replicas like San Stefano in Bologna, the influence of figures such as Jan Pascha, Adrichomius, and Blessed Henry Suso, and the earlier "Seven Falls" tradition. The result is a rich study of sacred geography, Passion meditation, and the enduring desire to walk with Christ through memory, prayer, and place. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
