Why I Am Catholic

[JustinHesychast]

Has anyone read this? I only had a chance to skim through it the other day when I went into the bookstore to get House of Leaves (anyone read it?). I just managed to flip through it, but I did notice it had a large section of history involving the East, so it really intrigued me.

Author? There are at least 2 books by that name at Amazon (actually, it's WHY I AM A CATHOLIC). You should be able to find reviews there to answer your question about whether the book is any good.

I think that is the correct one.

I think that is the correct one.

I suspect it will appeal to liberal Catholics and find a huge lack of interest here at TAW.
