This is the story of one in five Americans who identify as Catholic—more than 50 million men and women whose lives have been shaped by the world’s largest Christian denomination. Starting with reporting on the dramatic changes ushered in by Vatican II, The National Catholic Reporter: Beacon of Justice, Community, and Hope tells the story of courageous journalists who banded together to report on those often-turbulent waves of modernization.
This comprehensive history chronicles the 60-year journey of the National Catholic Reporter Publishing Company, from the Second Vatican Council to the era of Pope Francis.
“This book is a masterful and utterly fascinating history of the National Catholic Reporter's ups and downs, highs and lows, and enduring importance.”
- Michael Leach, publisher emeritus, Orbis Books, and author of Why Stay Catholic
“The National Catholic Reporter has served as the Catholic guide to excellent writing, profound social development, and the truth-telling commitment that keeps the Catholic church itself alive and honest in the 21st century. May she maintain that tradition for the next 100 years for all our sake.”
- Sr. Joan Chittister, bestselling author of books about faith and society
