- Description
- Through memoir, interviews and historical overview the author, a founding member of Grailville, chronicles the evolution of the Grail in the United States from the 1940s to 1995. She deals with the European origins of the movement in 1921 in The Netherlands and its adaptation to the American scene, and its work through the early 1960s. She describes the breakup of the original Grail model under the impact of Vatican II, and the emergence of new projects and adaptation to change.
