This book brings light not only to a beautiful life but also to the very history of the Catholic Church and Catholic Education in the last century. Father Theodore Hesburgh's exemplary life is a testament to what is good in the church. I found his story quite compelling. I think what I really appreciated most was the was that the author included what was happening in society as a whole, in America and the world, in setting the scene. I am so grateful to have read this biography.
I received my copy through NetGalley under no obligation.

Honestly,this book was for my husband to read. Father Ted Hesburgh is his idol and he will read anything and everything regarding Fr Hesburgh. He was not disappointed by this book, as I imagine anyone who reads this will feel the same way. A remarkable man and life.
