Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Maryknoll Movement' offers a comprehensive historical survey of the Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America during its foundational years. Written by George C. Powers, the work chronicles the emergence of the United States as a significant force in global missionary efforts, detailing the spiritual and organizational evolution of the Maryknoll movement in the early 20th century.The book traces the visionary leadership of founders Thomas Frederick Price and James Anthony Walsh, following their journey from the initial conception of an American mission society to the establishment of the Maryknoll Seminary.
