Father Christopher Lawrence Zugger, "The Forgotten: Catholics in the Soviet Empire from Lenin through Stalin," University of Syracuse Press, 2001.

I own a well-thumbed copy of this book, which covers the Bolshevik Persecution of the Catholic Faith in great detail. I am preparing to write a review of it for the newspaper "THe Catholic Family News." Have any of you read it and if so do you have any thoughts?

Does anyone know the whereabouts of Fr Chris?
I knew him in my Air Force days down in New Mexico.

Last time I spoke to him, Father Chris was still assigned to Albuquerque.

Bless, Father,

Father Christopher is indeed at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Alburquerque. Contact info for him, as well as info regarding his newest book, is on the parish website.

Many years,

Neil
