Description - Peter Maurin by Dorothy Day
Dorothy Day's life among the poor and her witness for peace are widely known. Those familiar with that story know the crucial role she assigned to Peter Maurin (1877-1949) the French peasant who inspired her to found the Catholic Worker. Yet Maurin's life and thinking have remained in the shadows. To convey a fuller sense of his story Day began this biography of Maurin in the 1940s but it remained unpublished--until now. Day provides the most complete and intimate portrait of the man she called "an Apostle to the world." in her account Maurin emerges as a true saint and prophet who offers an instructive and healing challenge for our time.
