Book Review: The Collar (Inside a Seminary)

An engaging look inside a Catholic seminary dispels many mysteries. First-time author Englert was granted and then denied access to seminaries in two separate dioceses before he was permitted to become a fly on the wall at a Wisconsin seminary specializing in second-career aspirants to the priesthood. Focusing on five seminarians at various stages of study, from entering students to those being ordained, he manages to cover a wide range of personal struggles and accomplishments. Monsters & Critics
