PASSIONATE PILGRIM, A(ISBN=9780375726163) 英文原版 rb mobi 在线 下载 lit txt 网盘 pdf

James A. Pike, the fifth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of

California, was a man of many faces. To some he was an iconoclast,

a man decades ahead of his time who modernized the Church and

rendered it more progressive and open to inquiry. To others he was

a heretic, who polarized and desecrated the Church. Always

controversial and charismatic, he took America by storm in the

1960s with his best-selling books, and his weekly television talk

show, Dean Pike, which won him a cover story in Time. A

Passionate Pilgrim is an illuminating biography of Pike, and an

examination of the tragedies, triumphs, and difficulties that

shaped his spectacular rise to fame and his mysterious death in the

Israeli desert.
