Reviews

"The subject makes a deservedly beautiful book. Mr. Hallie is wholly equal to it."--Paul Horgan"The thing that makes the story of this village supremely beautiful is simply that it happened. These events took place and therefore demand place in our view of the world. If awareness of history has pushed us to the point of losing faith in ourselves, the case may also be, as professor Hallie says, that 'redemption lies in remembering.' "Lest Innocent Blood Be Shed is one of the rarest of books, the kind that can change the way we live."--"Harper's"If, as has often been alleged, our old ethics do not work well, the alternatives work worse. But what is stunning about the people of Le Chambon is that the old ethics worked perfectly for them. Its citizens attained in virtue the perfection that in artistic creation or performance we recognize as glamorous--magical, mystifying, romantic, alluring. The Chamonnais set new standards of excellence."--"The New Yorker"After reading this book, one is compelled to think of "The Sorrow and the Pity...and the courage and the faith."--"New York Times Book Review

Reviews

5 of 5 Stars! – Customer review on 13/02/2008

Wow what do you say about this book? Other than that it is a picture of true love for one another, for mankind in one of the most brutal times of the World Wars. One pastor and his small parish lived out their conviction of Loving the Lord their God with all their hearts, and loving one another - and that included fleeing Jews escaping to them. This is a great narrative form of a true story, inspirational, meaningful and challenging. I recommend this for everyone to read & reference in their lives.
