| Summary: | "Antonin Scalia thought deeply about matters of religion and shared his insights with many audiences over the course of his remarkable career. As a Supreme Court justice for three decades, he vigorously defended the American tradition of allowing religion a prominent place in the public square. As a man of faith, he recognized the special challenges of living a distinctively religious life in modern America, and he inspired other believers to meet those challenges with grace and courage. This volume contains Justice Scalia's incisive thoughts on these matters, laced with his characteristic wit. It includes moving speeches featured in the ... bestseller Scalia Speaks and draws from the best of his Supreme Court opinions and published articles. Other highlights include Rev. Paul D. Scalia's beautiful homily at his father's funeral Mass and personal reminiscences from close friends and law clerks whose lives were touched by Antonin Scalia's faith."--Dust jacket. |
