When Pope Leo XIV, the first American pope, stepped onto the loggia of Saint Peter's Basilica, he introduced himself to the world as "a son of St. Augustine." This remarkable collection illuminates the Augustinian soul of Robert Prevost: his formation as a priest, his decades of missionary service, and his rise to lead the Order of Saint Augustine, all filtered through the enduring wisdom of one of the Church's greatest Doctors. Drawing from his doctoral dissertation, rare Spanish-language addresses, book forewords, and his earliest papal audiences and homilies, this volume offers an intimate and authoritative portrait of the man now guiding the universal Church.
