Book Reviews of The Spirit of Notre Dame: Legends, Traditions, and Inspiration from One of America#s Most Beloved Universities
Book Review: A Wonderful Gift !
Summary: 5 Stars
I received this book as a gift, and the gift was more than just a book, it was the "gift of spirit of Notre Dame".
I went to a huge state university, and was little more than a number. At Notre Dame it must be so very different, the students become a part of a "family". They were nurtured, cared about and stayed a part of the school's extended family. What a wonderful feeling of warmth and security this must generate to those many students who were away from home!
The Langfords do an excellent job of re-creating Notre Dame's unusual history, and the determination of its staff to keep the college open despite seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
The stories of individual students were sensitively told -and I found myself in tears several times as I read this book.
Although I've not yet visited the school, I do want to go there to meet the staff and students , to see campus, especially the grotto that is so vividly described in the book, and to FEEL the Spirit of Notre Dame for myself.
It's a wonderful gift!
