Publisher's Synopsis

This book "follows the experiences of six priests ordained for the Archdiocese of Chicago in 1969, now on the brink of their retirement: Fathers Mike Ahlstrom, Larry Duris, Bob Heidenreich, Tom Libera, Ed Upton, and Bill Zavaski. In a series of in-depth interviews, these men open up to the author with amazing insight and honesty about their seminary training, their assignments in a variety of communities, and their triumphs and disappointments, as well as their relationships with their people, their fellow priests, and the three cardinal archbishops under whom they served. In the process they reveal much about their own spiritual lives, celibacy, and the sexual abuse crisis -- topics seldom discussed openly by priests."--Page 4 of cover.
