History & Biography
“Matthew Wiseman was brought up in a typically shallow American Evangelicalism. Seeking tradition and a more objective authority, he and his family became enmeshed in the arcane world of Christian Messianism. Wiseman describes in detail how the trek towards tradition led him on an intellectual quest that ended with his reception into the Catholic Church. An absorbing, fascinating tale of one intellectual young man’s thirst for truth.”
