I was drawn to this book because it was on the pro-life movement, and had never really thought about the history of that fight. It has wonderful bio snipets of so many faithful believers I'd never heard of. It was also an excellent call to action on behalf of the compromised.

While the author claims that the people he cites are "pro-life", they do nothing to encourage systemic change to decrease the abortion rate (higher wages, rent control, free healthcare, etc). He also attacks anyone who is not Christian.

An excellent book, a well developed presentation of the history of the pro-life movement through Church history.
