A very readable and moving personal account of decades of nonviolent living by a co-founder of Pax Christi USA.

Literally, the entire history of everything Mother Teresa written by a woman very close to her throughout much of her life. Also, an indispensable source for the history of the Missionaries of Charity. The book, however, is so long and filled with so many stories and details that sometimes the beauty of her simple life gets lost in it - one star removed from what otherwise is an extraordinary biography.

An excellent review of Christian thought on nonviolence and war, and a critique of just war thinking as well as a personal account of the growth of a Catholic nonviolence movement in the modern era.
