I thought it was going to me a preachy tome written by
the priest who guided the University of Notre Dame from a regional
school to a university of international stature. What the book turned
out to be, though, was the story of a Forrest Gump sort of man in a
clerical collar. Father Hesburgh somehow managed to be present at (and
play a significant role in!) some of the most memorable moments in
recent American history. This guy was everywhere! And he also flew
faster than any living human being on the face of the earth. That story
alone is worth the price of the book, and I guarantee it will have you
shaking your head in amazement. This is a life that will inspire you
and astound you. Read it like an adventure story because that's EXACTLY
what it is.
