Father Faber is a biography of Frederick William Faber, an English Roman Catholic priest and hymn writer who lived in the 19th century. Written by W. Hall-Patch and published in 1914, the book traces Faber's life from his birth in 1814 to his death in 1863. The biography covers Faber's early years as an Anglican clergyman, his conversion to Catholicism, and his subsequent career as a priest and writer. The book also explores Faber's contributions to the Catholic Church, including his work as a founder of the Oratory of St. Philip Neri in London and his creation of numerous hymns still sung today, such as Faith of Our Fathers. In addition to detailing Faber's life and accomplishments, the book provides insight into the religious and cultural climate of 19th century England. Overall, Father Faber is a comprehensive and engaging biography of an important figure in Catholic history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
