Glory to Jesus Christ!

Hello to all. This is my first post on the forum, so I apologize in advance if I made this post in the wrong forum. I have grown up in the Byzantine Ruthenian church, but only in the last year have I truly begun to appreciate the church's history and tradition. In the course of this I have been teaching myself old slavonic and learning how to pronounce the cyrillic alphabet. I'm currently looking for a Casoslov. I have seen the online version on the Patronage website, but have been looking to see if I can find a physical, single volume copy of one to carry with me and have the chance to expand my religious horizons.

Is there anywhere that I could find myself a Casoslov? Preferably I would like to find a copy of the 1950 Rome edition, but I dp know that there other versions out there. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

All the publications of the Ruthenian Recensian have been reprinted in facsimile form by Easter Christian Publications (ECP). The Recensian books can be purchased online; see link [secure.webvalence.com]. The Casoslov is around the middle of the listing on that page. The images on the Patronage site are the same as the ECP reprints.

Note that the reprint is divided into three volumes.

Don't know the Ruthenian chasoslov, but great horologions in Slavonic can be found online in Russia very cheaply. Another good option would be the old rite prayerbook; this has slavonic and english side by side for all the basic parts of the hours, vespers and matins. The slavonic does differ a little from non old rite usage, but given that Ruthenians almost never use slavonic now (I believe) I wouldn't worry, it will help you learn.

You can also download the whole thing according to Russian Orthodox usage in pdf:

Thank you for all of the help. I really do like the ECP publications, but unfortunately they are a little bit out of my price range, but maybe someday in the future I can purchase them.

I would however be interested in finding a Russian great horologion in Slavonic. I've searched, but to no avail. Otsheylnik, you wouldn't happen to know any site in particular in which I could find one? The link you provided is very helpful as well.
