"Andrea
Vogt's moving account of the life and brave death of Bill Wassmuth combines
an investigative reporter's thoroughness with a poet's grasp of the spiritual
side of his crusade against hate... a disturbing and insightful account
of a Catholic priest's soulful journey through the turbulence of
the late 20th century."
