Reviews
Fr. Pelton has done a remarkable job in gathering such a diverse and high-quality set of lectures. This volume will become invaluable in keeping Bishop Romero's memory and legacy alive in the U.S. and abroad., "Robert Pelton has collected various essays that attempt to reckon with Romero's formidable influence. Writers in this volume--from El Salvadoran political leader Rubn Zamora to U.S. activist Margaret Swedish, to Chiapas bishop Samuel Ruiz Garcia--would surely agree with Archbishop Luciano Mendes de Almeida who points out that, Romero always spoke the truth about the situation of oppression and repression being lived by the poorest of the poor -- even risking his life to do so. ...the book reveals the various conflicts in which Romero found himself at such a grave time in the life of his country." -- The Americas, "Robert Pelton has collected various essays that attempt to reckon with Romero's formidable influence.

Synopsis
Monsignor Romero: A Bishop for the Third Millennium is a collection of a series of speeches given in honor of the late archbishop by distinguished visitors to Notre Dame. Shortly before his assassination, Archbishop Romero told an interviewer, "I have to say, as a Christian, that I don't believe in death without resurrection. If they kill me, I will rise again in the Salvadoran people." Using a wealth of detailed information about his life and work, the prelates, priests, human rights advocates, civic leaders, and Latin Americanists who have contributed to this volume show how Romero has fulfilled this prophecy. As the title implies, this book examines Romero's role as a model bishop for the new millennium. It places particular emphasis on his commitment to human rights, his innovative implementation of the option for the poor, his dedication to the Church, and his views of the role of the laity. It is also an inspirational account of Romero's deep and abiding faith that seemingly insoluble problems can be resolved by following the Spirit. An introduction by Fr. Pelton and an afterword by Juan Méndez, Director of the Notre Dame Center for Civil and Human Rights, round out the collection. This diverse and rich assortment of lectures substantially adds to our historical and theological understanding of one of the most important Christian figures of the twentieth century. It will be of significant value to anyone interested in the life of this remarkable man., Essays on the martyred Oscar Romero, the Archbishop of San Salvador, who repeatedly protested against the rampant violence in El Salvador., Monsignor Romero: A Bishop for the Third Millennium is a collection of a series of speeches given in honor of the late archbishop by distinguished visitors to Notre Dame.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe

    Excellent purchase. Was able to get all three items from the one seller. Seller was able to bundle all three items together into one package. Items as described and arrived in perfect condition. Good communication around shipping and tracking as items delayed and not able to be delivered by original estimate. Thanks to shipping updates I was able to track the items arriving before the extended delivery time. Thank you for making these items available on EBay.
