I've just ordered some DVD's of talks given by Fr. Gregorius Hesse in the U.S. from Oltyn Library Services. Does anyone know of any other recordings of talks he gave in English that can be bought or downloaded? Or any transcripts? He's a brilliant speaker.

I had most all of his talks but I have loaned them all out and have never gotten them back You might want to look him up under Canon Hesse. He had a photographic memory and gave the best talks I have ever heard.
Thank you very much, StJustin and Lord Phan. My broadband connection is spectacularly slow nowadays, won't even play videos on YouTube, so Skype is not an option, I regret to say! I'll try the searches you suggest.
Is he well known in the US? Unheard of in England, I think. I have his collected talks in German on DVDs and I have the idea, as a (very) long-term project, of translating them into English, perhaps for publication. I'd also need to find someone who can understand Viennese dialect, which he occasionally slips into, usually for the funniest bits.
I find there's a great lack of traditional Catholic writing in English now. Post Michael Davies and Archbishop Lefebvre, there have been books on doctrine, etc. from the Angelus Press and reprints, but nothing original. (Except Bishop Williamson, of course!) I was interested that Father Dominic said he was planning a book of his "Credidimus Caritati" writing. Could you let us know if/when it will be published, Father?

Yes. At the moment it is on an ebook format. I have a hundred pages or so finished. I want it to be small, about 150 pages or so, on various subjects, divided into essays, that a person can read in one sitting. I have another book planned which will serve as an introduction to Traditional Catholicism.
