Thomas Merton: A Modern Man in Reverse
From his background of Christian scholarship and monastic practice, the VERY REVEREND DOM AELRED GRAHAM, O.S.B., has written the only full-length appraisal of Thomas Merton that has so far been printed. Dom Graham, who was born in England in 1907, became a Benedictine at Ampleforth Abbey in 1930, spent four years at Oxford. and in his books, of which Catholicism and the World Today is the most recent, as in his work for the London Times, has revealed his deep interest in the relations between the Roman Catholic Church and democracy. He is now Prior of Portsmouth Priory in Rhode Island.
