Excerpt from Mercier: The Fighting Cardinal of BelgiumMrs. Vernon Kellogg is one of those Ameri cans who devoted themselves to the great work of ministering to the needs of the Belgians during that period before America herself entered the war. She had many occasions to see Cardinal Mercier and to estimate the effect of his personality and of his deeds on the peo ple to whom he was a veritable shepherd when they were in danger of being scattered abroad. In her Life of him, one obtains a closer and more intimate View of his character and his deeds than one might otherwise have done had she not been moved to write this book. No one is better qualified than she to speak of his courageous work. For a while she lived the life of those whom that work so greatly helped. She knew of its need and was the Witness of its efficiency and its moral beauty, and her tal ent and her devotion combine to give us an inspiring and an ennobling picture of one of the finest figures of our times or of all times.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
