Description

A priest by calling, a philosopher by profession, a businessman by necessity, and a bon vivant by DNA

Cape Breton's renowned social activist and priest comes alive in this warm, personal biography. Crafted from Greg MacLeod's diaries and letters, plus Doucet's years as his traveling companion, Father Greg displays the incredible range and vigour of MacLeod's ideas and their down-to-earth application. Through his daring range of proposals, Fr. Greg relentlessly advocated for the public good. Includes a terrific batch of photographs.
