A masterpiece bio. Fascinating history, I learned stuff about the making of our country I never knew. Its a tome and worth the read.
Here If You Need Me: A True Story
by Kate Breastrup (Memoir)
The story begins with the death of Breastrup’s husband, a Maine State Trooper. She then goes to seminary and becomes the chaplain for the Maine Game Wardens. Though Breastrup’s Universalist theology is bankrupt, she writes on subjects such as death, loss, grief, God’s mystery, remembering, and mourning with dignity, honor, and appropriate humor. This is an enjoyable read that I will read again and again. I cannot recommend it enough
