# A 19th Century American Presbyterian Commentary on the Westminster Shorter Catechism

If I asked you for a list of commentaries on the Westminster Shorter Catechism, chances are this two volume set by Ashbel Green wouldn’t be on it. But you can find it [here](/authors/ashbel-green), written for the youth of his day. He also published a history of Presbyterian mission work during the 19th century. There’s more Ashbel Green material out there to be found, so check back again soon.
