Adolphe Tanquerey

Contributor

A French Sulpician, Adolphe Tanquerey was a one-time teacher at Old St. Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore. Tanquerey was best known by priests and seminarians of the middle part of this century for his three-volume synopses of dogmatic and moral theology. Abbreviated versions of these were affectionately known as “Baby Tanks.”
