This "Stringfellow reader" collects the most significant of William Stringfellow's works — currently all out of print — plus important material not previously published. Included are an introductory essay by the editor that comments on Stringfellow's major works and the impact of his thought; an autobiography constructed from Stringfellow's own writings; an anthology of Stringfellow's writings, including excerpts from thirteen books and from magazine articles and speeches; portions of two books left incomplete at the time of Stringfellow's death, and a thorough bibliography of Stringfellow's writings.

Bill Wylie Kellermann, a friend of William Stringfellow during the last decade of his life, is a United Methodist pastor teaching at the Robert H. Whitaker School of Theology, Ferndale, Michigan. He is a contributing editor of Sojourners and the author of the book Seasons of Faith and Conscience.
Until his death in 1985, William Stringfellow was a Christian social activist in the mold of Daniel Berrigan, Thomas Merton and William Sloan Coffin. As a lawyer in East Harlem, he saw the social injustice; and, in his writings as well as his activism, he tried to indicate the ways Christianity could respond to those injustices. Stringfellow's writings are deeply scriptural, and this collection, drawn from his 16 books and numerous articles, nicely demonstrates the wide range of his thoughts and passions. The first section focuses on his autobiographical writings; the second collects his words on the vocation of the church; and a third is devoted to his central theological concern, the conflict of principalities and powers. The final section collects writings devoted to the art of living humanely. We can be in Kellerman's debt, for this long overdue collection reacquaints us with a man who was indeed a keeper and doer of the Word.
