The author excells himself in this book He has a clever way of weaving stories into a meaningful sprititual journey.Using the all-time favourite "The Wizard Of Oz" as a guide he blends real life stories into helpful themes,eg Priorities,Loss,Old Age,Failure & Guilt,Signposts etc.I have read most of William Bausch's books but this has got to be his best.

This book written by Father Bausch is a great tool in developing your faith. In fact, it would be a great resource used either individually or in small groups. The questions at the end of each chapter help bring the material together and the author's use of "stories" throughout the entire book make it an easy and delightful read. Fr. Bausch uses Wizard of Oz characters as the basis for identifying personal and spiritual barriers. I would highly recommend this book to anyone in search of spiritual growth, hope, healing.

The "Yellow Brick Road" is the best book I have read by William Bausch.What is so helpful is the unique way the author weaves his stories into the spriritual journey, making his points very clear.One story that highlights this fact is the one about Ruth & Margaret entitled "Ebony & Ivory" It must be one of the most inspiring stories ever told. This book is full of hope,courage & discernment & it will be extremely useful to anyone going through a personal crisis.The book is real to life situations.
