This book is not an attempt at a scholarly review of Therese. Nor is it strictly a biography of her. The author gives us points in his life when Therese intersected with his personal history -- sadness as a little boy, alienation as a young soldier, etc., mixing in the story of Therese and her family and her particular spirituality. The book is easy reading and very straighforward -- it should be approachable by all sorts of people. I found it very touching. And, as anyone who is also a follower of Therese knows, it is nice to hear from others of the same orientation. I highly recommend this book. I have, however, one very small quibble: there were just a couple of proofreading errors. But these are so minor (like the date of death of Joan of Arc), that it really doesn't affect the book or its impact. Thank you Mr. Cavanaugh for a thoughful afternoon and evening of reading.
