" For almost a decade, BONIFACE HANLEY, O.F.M., has been writing lively biographies of Christian saints and heroes for the popular Franciscan quarterly, "The Anthonian," ten of which are presented in this volume. Father Hanley brings a wide background in pastoral, educational and missionary experience to his writing, and has contributed to a number of Catholic magazines including "St. Anthony Messenger" and "The Cord." He is also the author of the book "The Franciscans - Love at Work." "

" TEN CHRISTIANS presents the stories of moral heroines and heroes, nonconformists often misunderstood by the institutional church, who always saw clearly the message of the gospel in their lives. Their courses of action were never easy, coming often in the face of great social upheaval, war, revolution, exploitation, poverty, incurable disease, and the ultimate example of man's inhumanity to man - the holocaust. They are heroic examples of the best person one can become; men and women who have made a significant contribution to the art of living. "

" For anyone asking the whereabouts of behavior models and guides to the mature Christian life, here are flesh and blood examples of what it really means to be a Christian. "
