130.18 CAD
Fine unread condition beige boards, maroon cloth spine, and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Preliminary Page Quote from 1 Corinthians 1:27; Introduction; Prologue; Notes; Acknowledgments; and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. Signed and inscribed by Raymond Arroyo with thin black Sharpie on the half title page. Second printing. "The extraordinary saga of Mother Angelica, founder of the multimillion-dollar Eternal Word Television Network and "The Most Influential Catholic Woman in America," according to TIME magazine. In 1981, the year after Ted Turner founded CNN, a simple nun, using merely her entrepreneurial instincts and two hundred dollars, launched what would become the world's largest religious media empire in the garage of a Birmingham, Alabama, monastery. Under her guidance, the Eternal Word Telvesion Network grew at a staggering pace, both in viewership and in influence, to where it now reaches over a hundred million viewers in hundreds of of countries around the globe. Born Rita Rizzo in Canton, Ohio, in 1923, Mother Angelica was abandoned by her father and raised in poverty by a mother who suffered from suicidal depressions. As a young woman, Rita developed severe abdominal pain that doctors dismissed as a "nervous condition," but when she sought the prayers of a local mystic, her symptoms disappeared. Awakened to the power of prayer, she vowed to dedicate her life to God and became a cloistered nun, expecting to spend her life hidden from the world. But Rita's faith soon compelled her to unlikely endeavors, from establishing a monastery in Alabama to starting the world's first Catholic cable network. Relying soley on "God's providence," Mother Angelica built an empire without concern for budgets or fund-raising campaigns, achieving what even the highest levels of the Catholic Church had been unable to do. Raymond Arroyo combines his journalist's objectivity and eye for detail with more than five years of exclusive interviews with Mother Angelica. He traces her tortured rise to success and exposes for the first time the fierce opposition she faced, both inside and outside of her church. It is an inspiring story of survival and proof that one woman's faith can move more than mountains." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "Mother Angelica is one of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time, and is truly one of my heroes. With his 'insider' perspective, Raymond Arroyo has done a masterful job capturing not only Mother's immeasurable accomplishments but also her remarkable personality. Like Mother herself, this book has the unique combination of being both inspiring and entertaining." - Thomas S. Monaghan, founder of Domino's Pizza and chancellor of Ave Maria University.

The price-clipped dust jacket is in fair condition (tears along folds and edges). 9 x 6 ¼, 360 pages, 29 ounces XX From the jacket flaps: This is a posthumous book. The author knew it would be and he wrote against time to finish it. His vivid recollections of the past fifty years of American civic and social life are a stirring, intimate and honest story of important local and national events in which he participated. It is as western as sagebrush. At times it becomes poetical. It covers a span of years from the last Indian uprisings to beyond the night when the author sat at a hot dog stand and made the final deal that gave Franklin Roosevelt the 1932 Democratic nomination. He promised himself: "In the little time that is left to me I shall try to set down the political needs and records and hopes of the country of the Great Plains through the story of one Westerner, myself, in the arena of our country's public life. I shall tell it as fairly, as honestly, as judicially as I can. It will be my own story, but in that it will also be part of the story of the Irish and the Catholic in America, part of the story of Nebraska, part of the story of the long frontier. It will be a story of struggle for livelihood, for law, for order, for civil and religious liberties. Most of all, it will be a story of a struggle for economic freedom through political action, a struggle which seems as yet hardly begun but which is older than the city states of Greece and Rome. "l found the West in a long Nebraska twilight. In the more than two score and ten years that have passed since that bright eventide I have seen the Old West die and the New West come to life. I haye seen the spirit of the plains rise in flood over the nation, seen it driven back, seen it surge once more. Even now, despite its current and surface triumph, I see it threatened both by old forces of reaction and new forces of revolution. Always, though, when skies have been darkest, when the Iiberties of men have seemed most direly threatened, I have glimpsed again the look of the land as I first saw it in that midsummer twilight; and I have known that, so long as men remember the unfenced West, our country shall be free." XX Arthur F. Mullen moved with his parents from Ontario to Nebraska while the cattle roamed a limitless range and the Indians still bristled at the continuing inroads of the ever-increasing settlers. He was...

"This work is a bold attempt of one who has ministered in the Church for over sixty years in various parts of the world, and for many years, in contact with Oriental religion and philosophy, to bridge the gap beween religion and science of psychic research and communication with the Saints departed." -- The dust jacket blurb says it all. Volume Two "is mainly comprised of material which had been ommitted from the first volume on account of production costs. The wide support given and the interst shown has encouraged the Author to produce another volume in which he has added messages recieved up-to-date from the same source as those in the first volume and, in addition, he has written a valuable chapter on Mediumship especially in relation to the direct voice".
