The world is full of interesting people and it has been George Weigel's good fortune to have known many such personalities in a variety of fields: politics; religion; the arts and sciences; journalism; the academy; entertainment; sports. In this collection of reminiscences of, and elegies, for notable personalities, many of whom he has known personally, the New York Times bestselling author of the authoritative biography of Pope St. John Paul II remembers these men and women from inside the convictions that formed them.
Whether he's sketching the lives of Nobel Prize-winning scientists or major league baseball managers, princes of the Church, television personalities, or history-making political leaders, Weigel tries to understand, and help readers understand, the deep truths of the human condition that each of these not-forgotten lives illuminates, offering a backstage view of some of the men and women who have shaped the turbulent history of our times.
