If Father Albert could stop talking about how great he is and how everything/everyone else is at fault this could have been a very good book. It had a wealth of knowledge about the differences between the Anglican and Roman Churches that as a former Roman Catholic did not know, but you could barely get past the fact that this man, knowlingly, committed a horrible sin and who is to blame...The Roman Catholic Church, the church that Father Albert made his committments and promises to, the church that did not change, Father Albert changed. I do not fault this change, the vows he made are more than most are willing to undertake, however the church didn't change the rules halfway through, Father Albert chose to ignore them and then got sad and angry when the church and the world called him on it. I am happy for the peace he has found in his new life and family and respect that the choices he had to make were difficult, I would have just rathered see him admit to that and not take up 300 pages blaming others.
