Product Description:

Amidst some of the most tumultuous times in our nation's history, one unlikely figure finds himself in the eye of the storm as he works to advance the causes of peace and equal rights for all people. Reverend Theodore Hesburgh, C.S.C., the long-time president of the University of Notre Dame, offers a unique glimpse at over fifty years of American history. As an educator, civil rights champion, advisor to presidents, envoy to popes, theologian, and activist, Hesburgh was called upon by countless world leaders to tackle the most challenging issues of the day. He built a reputation as a savvy political operator with a knack for bridging the divide between bitter enemies. Throughout his journey, he remained a man armed with a fierce intelligence, a quick wit, and an unwavering moral compass—a timeless example of bipartisan leadership that is particularly relevant in today's increasingly polarized times.
