Description:
|
|
Patriot Priest is, in part, the story of Msgr. William A. Hemmick. Raised in Europe and fluent in five languages, he helped the troops during the First and Second World Wars. He was proclaimed the Patriot Priest of Picardy by the Army and Navy, and after years spent in Paris, William Hemmick was asked by the Vatican to come to Rome. Ultimately, he became the only American Canon of St. Peter's representing the Knights of Malta to the Holy See. It was he who performed the nuptials of Tyrone Power and Linda Christian. He also converted the future Queen Astrid of Belgium. However, this is not only the story of one individual. It is a personal glimpse at an epic era in history, from WWI to Paris between the wars, to WWII and its aftermath.
