Father Nicholas A. Norman was Director of the Confraternity of Mary, Queen of All Hearts in the mid-nineteen-hundreds. His concise booklet on the Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary was originally published in 1949 by J. S. Paluch Co., Chicago. In addition, it received the Imprimatur and Nihil Obstat upon publication. Father Norman intended the little work as an explanation of true devotion as rendered toward the Immaculate Queen. The Consecration to the Immaculate Heart was retypeset and republished by TAN in 1988.
