They Called Her The Baroness is a wonderfully absorbing and professionally researched life story which is also a grippingly readable tale. This is the first major biography of Catherine Doherty. Refugee noblewoman, victim of an abusive marriage advocate of all forms of justice, passionate servant of God, an enigma even after her death. Considered a saint by some (her cause for canonization is under consideration by the Catholic Church), and a charlatan by others. This is an undeniably extraordinary story. Included are excerpts from diaries, correspondence, photos, and interviews with family, friends, and associates. "In every century there are a few individuals whose lives boggle the imagination. Catherine de Hueck Doherty was such a person. Her life is now carefully recorded with professional objectivity. I'm sure you'll find that she led an extraordinary life, one filled with miracles of grace and love. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did." -- Father John Catoir, The Christophers.Duquin, Lorene Hanley is the author of 'They Called Her the Baroness: The Life of Catherine de Hueck Doherty' with ISBN 9780818907531 and ISBN 0818907533.
