“An admirably judicious and comprehensive—and long overdue—study of
one of the most remarkable figures of the twentieth century, whose
presence remains both spiritually and politically significant for
an age of violently confused international relations.”—Rowan
Williams, Master of Magdalene College (Cambridge University),
former Archbishop of Canterbury
“A good and indispensable man, Hammarskjöld ‘understood and
respected the need for heroes.’ In this lucid, well-written
