Book Description: Catherine Dohertys personal memoir! Catherine tells in her own words how she was born to wealth in pre revolutionary Russia, raised among Arab children and pashas in Egypt, French students in Paris, and Russian peasants and aristocrats on her family estate. She shares how she dodged bullets as a nurse during World War I, barely survived the Russian Revolution, encountered poverty as a refugee and returned from her rags to riches in North America. Then finally, how she gave everything away to serve the poor. She tells of her adventures as a magazine correspondent in pre World War II Europe, as a leader in the U.S. Civil Rights movement, and as an internationally renowned speaker and writer who dodged rotten eggs and tomatoes, calling for racial and economic justice, ecumenism, and an active role for lay people in the Church. Then she goes on to how she fell in love with and married Eddie Doherty, Irish American newspaperman, and how they together founded Madonna House Lay Apostolate, and became leaders in the development of new forms of Christian community and service in the world. A journey into Catherines life, disclosing the mysteries of world events that shaped her life; the mysteries of her leadership; the mysteries of her marriage; and, most of all, the mysteries of Gods love.
