Book Description:
|
As the concluding volume in the five-volume series of The Letters of Thomas Merton, Witness to Freedom is in some respects the most revealing and dramatic book in the quintet. Since these letters deal with periods of serious crisis in Merton's life and vocation, they give readers for the first time, in his own words, the true details and behind-the-scenes facts. Witness to Freedom shows Merton as a living witness against war, perhaps one of the greatest of our century.
