Item description from seller

First Edition USA (1962), not directly stated, but implied, in accordance with Helicon's customary, but not universal practice. Near Good+ in Very Good DJ: The Book shows "Notre Dame Noviate" rubber stamped at the front free endpaper; some black stains from a DJ protector along the bottom edge of the exterior boards and the front and rear endpapers; else flawless if no longer 'fresh'; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean.Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. A carefully used copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing mild wear and some cosmetic flaws. Not so very far from 'As New'. The DJ shows some very faint dampstaining at both the upper corners of the front and rear panels (but not at the backstrip); faint sunning has blanched the red titles at the the backstrip (the black lettering remains unaffected: bold and clearly legible); else only a hint of wear to the extremities and the mildest rubbing to the panels and very faint soiling to the white background field of the panels; the price has been clipped; mylar-protected. Remains attractive, if not without flaw. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8.75 x 5.75 x 0.7 inches). 128 pages. Preface by Richard Cardinal Cushing. Foreward by Henri Daniel-Rops. Translated by Steven McNierney and Louis Evrard. Language: English. Weight: 11 ounces. Orange boards with silver titles at the backstrip. The original French edition was published in 1961. Hardback with DJ. The Taizé Community is an ecumenical Christian monastic fraternity in Taizé, Saône-et-Loire, Burgundy, France. It is composed of more than one hundred brothers, from Catholic and Protestant traditions, who originate from about thirty countries around the world. It was founded in 1940 by Brother Roger Schütz, a Reformed Protestant. Guidelines for the community’s life are contained in The Rule of Taizé written by Brother Roger. Taizé has become one of the world's most important sites of Christian pilgrimage, with a focus on youth. Over 100,000 young people from around the world make pilgrimages to Taizé each year for prayer, Bible study, sharing, and communal work. Through the community's ecumenical outlook, they are encouraged to live in the spirit of kindness, simplicity and reconciliation. The community's church, the Church of Reconciliation, was inaugurated on 6 August 1962. It was designed by a Taizé member and architect, Brother Denis. Young Germans from Action Reconciliation Service for Peace, created for reconciliation after World War II, assumed the work of building it. Brother Roger had pondered what it really meant to live a life according to the Scriptures and began a quest for a different expression of the Christian life. A year after this decision, Schütz founded the community. At the time he reflected: "The defeat of France awoke powerful sympathy. If a house could be found there, of the kind I had dreamed of, it would offer a possible way of assisting some of those most discouraged, those deprived of a livelihood; and it could become a place of silence and work." Because his native Switzerland was neutral and thus less affected by the war, Schütz felt as if France would be ideal for his vision, seeing it as a "land of poverty, a land of wartime suffering, but a land of inner freedom." He eventually settled in Taizé, which was a small, isolated village just north of Cluny, the site of a historically influential Christian monastic foundation. First Edition USA (1962), not directly stated, but implied, in accordance with Helicon's customary, but not universal practice.
