Knock: Vision of Hope by Fr. Hubert, O.F.M. Cap. Knock Shrine Society, 1959.
Scarce pre-Vatican II history of and guide to the Irish shrine where Mary, Jesus and Joseph appeared in 1879.
"In this small book Knock, Vision of Hope Franciscan friar Father Hubert bids us lift our eyes to see St. Joseph also as a beacon of hope. The demeanour is one characteristic him as we witness his interior contemplation and depth of prayer. 'Reverently inclined towards the blessed Virgin and holding his hands joined, the patron of the Church has placed himself in prayerful union with God’s providential plan – he is interceding with the heavenly Queen that the Church on earth which is his care, may attain to its final exaltation through and in her.'"
