Book Review: Holy Man: Father Damien of Molokai
Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted to read more about Father Damien before he is canonized a saint in October 2009. Gavan Daws has done much research before writing this biography of Damien DeVeuster. His style gives the reader much insight as to Damien's spirituality and his aim to be of service to others; on occasion, Damien had to ride a horse, and even swim to the village where he was to meet some of the people. He loved the people he served. What a wonderful inspiration to us!
