PLEASE LOOK AT PHOTOS TO HELP DETERMINE CONDITION. Heinrich Brück (born at Bingen, 25 October 1831; died 4 November 1903) was a German Catholic church historian, and Bishop of Mainz. He followed for some time the cooper's trade. After a course of studies under of a distinguished ecclesiastic, Dr. Joseph Hirschel, he entered the seminary at Mainz. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1855, exercised for some time the ministry, and made a postgraduate course at Munich under Ignaz von Döllinger, and at Rome. In 1867 he was appointed to the chair of ecclesiastical history in the seminary of Mainz. He continued to teach until his elevation to the episcopate, with the exception of the years from 1878 to 1887, when seminary was closed by the order of the Government due to the Kulturkampf. In 1889 he became a canon of Mainz Cathedral; he received also several positions of trust in the administration of the diocese. In 1899 he was chosen Bishop of Mainz. Perhaps his best known work is his manual of church history, from "Lehrbuch der Kirchengeschichte" (Mainz, 1874; 8th ed., 1902). It has been translated into English, French, and Italian. The author showed himself possessed of extensive knowledge not only in history, but also in theology and canon law. A more special work is his "Geschichte der katholischen Kirche in Deutschland im neunzehnten Jahrhundert"—History of the catholic Church in Germany in the Nineteenth Century", in five volumes (1887-1905). He was also the author of an account of rationalistic movements in Catholic Germany (1865), a life of Dean Lennig (1870), and a work on secret societies in Spain (1881 PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY COLLECTION OF OTHER COOL STUFF I HAVE LISTED.
