Review Quotes: "A richly illustrated and entertaining history of the Knights of Columbus . . . focus[es] not only on the inner workings of the Knights and their mission, but also on their interaction with the wider church and society, including popes and presidents. The authors enrich the flow of text with countless photos, a number of inset sidebars, and a series of 'Notable Knight' minibiographies, including such diverse individuals as Babe Ruth and Sargent Shriver . . . this history does its primary job well: introducing lay readers to the Knights and providing devotees with an informative resource for casual browsing or more serious study. An approachable, worthwhile history of a venerable Catholic brotherhood. (Full-color throughout.)"-- "KIRKUS REVIEWS"
