In an engaging and highly readable memoir-cum-commentary, Monsignor Higgins, the dean of American Catholic social action, draws on his nearly 50 years of involvement in the cause of working people and their unions to create a book that will have a great impact on anyone interested in the 20th-century labor movement and the history of social action.

Reviews
At a time when he sees the labor movement on a downslide and the Catholic Church, which in earlier years strongly supported workers to form labor unions, now in danger of losing its tradition of cooperation with organized labor, Higgins writes of what he, as a Catholic priest, has experienced during nearly 50 years of involvement in the labor movement. He also argues for the enduring relevance of organized labor to the cause of social justice and to the Catholic Church's social mission in the modern world. What emerges is a portrait of a man of great accomplishments who has carried out his mission with charm, tact, common sense, and good humor. Recommended for academic libraries with activist religion and industrial relations collections.
