This book is about the most eminent Indian churchman of modern times, who molded the Bombay diocese, the Indian Church and indeed the country so sharply that he verily transformed it. The organization of 38th International Eucharistic Congress was his greatest achievement. His presence on the scene has been so dynamic that the Church in India, and even India for that matter, will never be the same again. A pauper from an early age, who relied solely on his widowed mother, he rose to great heights, despite a few breakdowns caused by people around him, befriending Popes, Presidents and Prime Ministers, and becoming the first Indian Cardinal of India.
