There is a book I would like to read, if it were in English: http://www.amazon.com/Vyznachni-pos...mp;s=books&qid=1199842099&sr=8-2

Does anybody know if this book has a translation or if there are works in English where I can find a comparable narrative?

It's about Metropolitan Andrei Sheptytskyi and Cardinal/Patriarch Iosyf Slipyi and their involvement in Ukrainian Nationalism and the conflict with the Soviets. I came across their names in a biography of Khrushchev I'm reading. Though the narrator does not distinguish between Orthodox and Catholic, he said enough about them for me to be interested in their story.

Oh, the author does distinguish Orthodox and Catholic where I'm reading.

Terry,

Professor Lentsyk also wrote "Eastern Catholic Church and Czar Nicholas I" - 1966 pub date. I can't find anything to suggest that the particular volume that you cite was ever published in English.

Many years,

Neil

Neil,

What led me to want a book like this was that I was wondering if Cardinal/Patriarch Iosyf Slipyi wrote a memoir after 15 years in the gulag. A good biography or historical snapshot of the time ~1945-6, I believe, leading to the persecution of the Ukrainian Nationalist and the priests would be just as good.
