Excellent Resource Apr 18, 2009
I highly recommend the New Roman Missal in its entirety. It is an excellent and extensive resource for living the Mass and the faith of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic Roman Catholic Church.

Excellent Missal - The burgandy leather-bound edition is perfectly executed with equal quality content Apr 04, 2009
This is a very high quality leather bound edition, with equally excellent content. The leather bound copy I purchased is "soft-sided", and is very comfortable to hold and read. There is no need to keep both hands on it, crease the pages, or bend the spine back in order to hold the pages in place as with many other hard-bound books. The presentation and execution of this Roman Catholic Missal is beautiful. All of the Latin and English Mass texts are side by side for the liturgies, and should cause no problem for even the so-called "traditional" Catholics. I've yet to find a Catholic Missal that has "everything" in it, but it's the latest and greatest version on the market at present. This U.S.C.C.B. Missal is being reworked, but it will likely be at least a year or two until the next update is available in the U.S. Even then, I expect this Missal will hold up perfectly well, both at Mass and in prayers and other home readings.

 Burgandy-Large Print Apr 14, 2008
The Roman Missal I received was exactly what I had previewed in a nearby church except for the size. THe extra large print really increased the size of the book for me. I decided to send it back on 4/12/08 because it was too heavy for me. I would love to have the regular size print book if possible. If not I hope to get a refund. Size was myu only factor of disappointment. The missal was great otherwise.

A beautiful and useful resource Feb 09, 2008
This is the first missal I have owned. I have used mine for two months, and I am very happy with it. The missal is beautifully made, with cream colored pages, a good use of color for text headings and graphics (like border lines) that keep it nicely organized. It has a well-designed layout that makes it easy to follow and a pleasure to read. Only minor fault mechanically is that the text runs a little too close to the binding, so I have to pull the book apart a little to read text near the binding.
I bought the bonded leather cover which is soft and comfortable to hold since it conforms to your hand. A very minor downside of this is that after you hold open the missal for use, the soft leather cover curls up just a little when you close the book and lay it down. A heavier hard cover would close flat and stay that way--but then I think it would be awkward to hold a hard-cover missal in one hand during mass.
The gilded pages are impressive, and I liked the idea of the pages being protected in this gold armor. Most missals have gilded pages. But now I am a little self-conscious of this flashy aspect of the missal when I am trying to be humble and prayerful in church. I think eventually (after many years of use) the gilding will get scratched and dinged and worn off from thumbing through pages, but the missal could otherwise probably go on and on and last for ages. So perhaps this is not really a necessary and practical extravagance.
I am learning Latin, so the inclusion of the Latin version of the mass parts was very important to me. I wish there was even more Latin included in this missal. For me, taking time to learn and read the Latin means that you are taking your time and studying the word of God. In addition, the Latin gives a slightly different sense of meaning which gives me a deeper understanding. Sometimes the Latin parts are completely missing in our English translations (as can be seen by comparison in this missal)--we are missing out on some beautiful thoughts and words. I am no longer just automatically reading and reciting the same old prayers and responses.
For the English readings, this missal uses the NAB so it is the same as the U.S. Catholic churches are using. After fretting a long time about reading the "correct" version of the Bible and investigating different versions, I have come back to the NAB and I am satisfied with it more than other translations. I think the NAB makes most sense to those of us using current American English, and the translation benefits from (so I am told) a great deal of scholarly study and effort to capture the true original meaning of ancient texts and to put them in terms that make sense in our current language (much as in its time, the old Latin version was a translation from the Hebrew and Greek so common folk who spoke Latin could understand).
Additional sections about the mass, practical advice on how to be a better Catholic, many special prayers, and much more, have become a treasured resource for me.
In summary, this missal is a neat and beautiful package that provides all the essential materials needed for mass and for living a reverent and good Christian/Catholic life.
