The end matter includes a letter from the Hermano Mayor Arzobispal of the Penitentes (as of 1975, when the book was published) noting that Dr. Weigle was the only writer on the Penitentes who had ever submitted a manuscript to them before publication; some changes and additions were suggested but the book was not “endorsed” by the Penitentes.
A scholarly text, not a light read. It helps if you are familiar with Catholic terminology and have some Spanish. Illustrations of morados, “maderos” (crosses), and a Death Cart. Many appendices mostly episcopal letters from various Church officials concerning the Penitentes; endnotes, a bibliography, and a good index.
