A Worl d to Remember recalls his childhood in Owensboro, Kentucky during the first decades after World War II, when racial segregation prevailed throughout the South and Americans lived under the shadow of the Cold War. The book also conjures up the political and social chaos of the 1960s and examines religious life behind the cloister of a Benedictine monastery during the exciting years of reform that followed the Second Vatican Council.
