About the Author
Maisie Ward (1889–1975) was a writer, publisher, and speaker, and is widely recognized as one of the most important Christian intellectuals of the twentieth century. With her husband, Frank Sheed, she founded the publishing house of Sheed and Ward, which revived the Catholic literary movement and supported and promoted the intellectual, literary, and artistic treasures of the Catholic Church.
Bradley J. Birzer is Russell Amos Kirk Chair of American Studies at Hillsdale College, and author of biographies of J. R. R. Tolkien, Charles Carroll of Carrollton, Neil Peart, Christopher Dawson, and, most recently, Russell Kirk.
Review
The English Way is more than a mere book. It is a marriage of all that is best in English Catholicism. Imagine a book in which some of the greatest writers of the Catholic Revival in the twentieth century were gathered together to write essays on some of the greatest figures in English history. This is just such a book. Chesterton on Alfred the Great and Thomas More; Belloc on Becket; Christopher Dawson on William Langland; Maisie Ward on St. Mary Ward; and Father Martin D'Arcy on John Henry Newman. Books don't come any better than this!" ~Joseph Pearce, Director of the Center for Faith and Culture, Aquinas College, Nashville, TN
