Oscar Romero
By: Marie Dennis Scott Wright
Overview
It is an extraordinary privilege to read this account of Oscar Romero because it reveals his deep inner spirit. To know him in this way becomes a call to find the face of God in the poor, as he did, and to live the way of the gospel love, whatever the cost. --Bishop Thomas J. Gumbleton
With martyrs like this, there is hope for humanity. It is that, so beautifully, that this book shows us. --Jon Sobrino, S.J.
Originally published on the twentieth anniversary of his death, this volume celebrates the life, spirit and legacy of Oscar Romero, the martyred archbishop of San Salvador.
