Pitrone, Jean Maddern The Touch Of His Hand Colombo, a Modern Day Damien in Burma Staten Island, NY Alba House 1970 0818901950 / 9780818901959 Hardcover Very Good in Good+ dust jacket Text is clean. Previous owner gift inscription on front free endpaper. Bluish cloth with gilt spine lettering. Dust jacket shows some wear along edges, small chip at upper corner, light chipping at head of spine. ; From Dust Jacket Flap: This moving and heart-rending story is a portrait of human misery and human courage. You may forget that its setting is mainly a Burmese leper colony, but the story - and the question it raises - linger with you. In a sense this is the biography of Father Cesar Columbo, and Italian priest, a PIME missionary, who unselfishly cared for the lepers and sought to bring hope to hopelessness. But it focuses our attention on a forgotten segment of humanity - and these unfortunate human beings are the center of the story . . . And should be the cause of our concern. If we cannot care for the wretched of the earth today, there is little use in dreaming of a better world tomorrow. ; 161 pages Price:
