The Legacy of Thomas Merton

We are happy to partner with the Liturgical Press in Collegeville, Minnesota, to provide another location at which a few of their books can be purchased.When he entered Gethsemani Abbey in 1941, Merton embraced a hidden life. By the time he died nearly thirty years later, he was well known as "a witness to life", a friend of people around the world, and a keen observer of both church and society. Those who knew him and who have studied his published works reflect here on his influence on Church and society.
