Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
This is an update of Brockman's The Word Remains: A Life of Oscar Romero ( LJ 12/1/82), his earlier biography of El Salvador's martyred archbishop. LJ 's reviewer called that book an "insightful account of the situation in Central America"; this updated edition has been released in conjunction with the Paulist Pictures film Romero , starring Raul Julia.

Customer Reviews
A depiction of political holiness
Oscar Romero is the saint of our age and James Brockman does him justice in this compelling biography. One can almost feel Romero's inner struggles and conflicts bubbling beneath the surface through the description of the historical record. Highly recommended.
