Description:

This illustrated biography tells his story, beginning with his humble origins and his early life as a relatively conservative priest and bishop. Embracing the church's "option for the poor," he became a courageous voice for the voiceless, entering a path he knew would lead to his death. It offers a stunning portrait of the gospel challenge for out time.
