Profiles of inspiration,
By Rich Leonardi (Cincinnati, Ohio) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Classic Catholic Converts (Paperback)
Fr. Connor has written terrific, essay-length profiles of about a dozen converts and a handful of conversion movements, e.g., the Oxford Movement, the converts of Fulton Sheen. Since the intended audience is 'Anglo-American,' most of the subjects of his sketches are from the United States and England. Included are popular and less-well-known figures like John Henry Newman, Ronald Knox, Dorothy Day, Jacques Maritain, and G.K. Chesterton. At a time of both confusion and opportunity within Catholicism, the men and women described in these pages show what it is about the Church that has inspired so many to make tremendous sacrifices to join her.
