About the Book



The book tells a story that captured the nation's attention: a working-class American's rise to become a Cardinal of the Catholic Church. The daily trials and triumphs of Stephen Fermoyle, from the working-class suburbs of Boston, drive him to become first a parish priest, then secretary to a Cardinal, later a bishop, and finally a wearer of the Red Hat.
