This provocative book takes a critical look at what is increasingly viewed as the central political issue for Catholics—abortion. From pro-choice politicians being denied communion to Democrats being called "the party of death;" for some of the most vocal Catholic leaders; the abortion issue often trumps all others. The author; a practicing Catholic who is against abortion in principle; believes the Church is on the wrong course with this issue; with grievous results for the Church and American society more broadly. He gives a brief history of abortion legislation; then explores the issue from legal; moral; and Christian perspectives; presenting compelling reasons why Church leaders and Catholics should stop trying to overturn Roe v. Wade and reconsider the issue.

This book should have never been sold. I will be returning it for a refund.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. The Unvarnished TruthBy jamie21This book should be required reading when studying this period in our history. This is respectable common people of the time(late 1830s)telling what they saw experienced. I grew up in the South never heard any of this. This is the unvarnished truth not wrapped in some mystical veneer of longing for the simpler times. Every excuse ever given for Southern slavery dissolves in the reading of American Slavery As It Is.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
