Amid the doctrinal and liturgical chaos of the second half of the twentieth century within the Catholic Church, the voice of Father James F. Wathen resounded with early clarity to quell the confusion of faithful Catholics. This affectionate volume is a milt-faceted tribute to the late Father Wathen, compiled by his brother, John. A biography, though not in the traditional sense, it covers Father's road to the priesthood and his diocesan experience during the tumultuous 1960's. But it further contains a montage of reminiscences from Father's siblings, his grateful flock, and several crucial excerpts from his own writings. They reveal much about Father, and also what his priesthood of necessity had to become in our Modernist age, as he determined to continue in faithful service to Our Lord and to those souls seeking the True Faith whom Divine Providence entrusted to his care. Father Wathen's wit, wisdom and dedication to the cause of Catholicism and its traditions, shine forth in a way that will be appreciated by both those who never met him, and those who miss him dearly.
