4.0
This set of essays has some really moving accounts of how heroes of conscience touched the lives of the authors.
I had looked forward to reading this book. But there were a number of essays that just left me cold.
I was especially surprised at one major error in the essay on Monseñor Romero. He was not killed elevating the host. He was killed immediately after the last word of his homily. He may have been behind the altar where he would begin preparing the gifts of bread and wine. But it was not during hte consecration. I would have expected better editing.
