The first commercial, in-depth biography of the American-born Roman Catholic priest who may well be declared a saint. . . . “Delightful. . . . No magisterial biography emanating a suffocating aura of pomp and self-importance, this book is as low-key and as uplifting as Father Michael Mc Givney himself.”-Calgary Herald “Father Mc Givney’s vision remains as relevant as ever in the changed circumstances of today’s Church and society.”-Pope John Paul II In a time of discrimination and poverty for Catholics across America, Father Michael Mc Givney (1852-1890), began a legacy of hope that continues to this day. Called to action in 1882 by his sympathy for these suffering people, this dynamic yet tenderhearted man-the son of Irish immigrants- founded the Knights of Columbus, an organization that has saved countless families from destitution. At heart, Father Mc Givney was the model of an American parish priest: Beloved by children, trusted by adults, and regarded as a “positive saint” by the elderly in his New Haven, CT, parish-a truly holy man whose life and works are still celebrated today.
