Missing book jacket Small divots on book ledge PJ Kenedy & Sons, 1955, 249 pages The life of Bishop Patrick James Byrne Apostolic Delegate to the Republic of Korea Excerpt from authors preface: Bishop Byrne had many gifts of nature and of grace. With his natural gifts, he could have been a great leader of men in the military, political, scientific, or business world. It is notdifficult to picture him leading an army or directing a politi cal party with a certain amount of ruthless drive. But God' grace turned his fine natural qualities to the pursuit of souls How well he followed his destiny, the one traced for him by Divine Providence, I have tried to show in this volume. The bishop's writings reveal many of his character trait: far better than I could describe them. I have taken the liberty to draw extensively from his diaries and letters so that my readers may make their own deductions as far as possible.
