The Price of Freedom: Edmund Rice - Educational Leader


Overview

Br John Carroll, the Christian Brothers' historian lamented in 2002: 'Today our group [the Christian Brothers] goes on a journey, in search of a man lost 150 years ago. For 150 years we followed a different star. We lived a different text of scripture. It was all God's plan. Today we are coming to an awareness of buried treasure. We are realising in some way that we lost a leader 150 years ago'. This book is a critical contribution to the rediscovery of that lost man, Edmund Rice. The specific focus is on Rice's contribution as an educational leader. In so doing, Denis McLaughlin has critiqued many long-held traditional interpretations and has found them either historically inaccurate or challengeable. He offers alternative perspectives that richly portray an invitingly human Edmund Rice as son, victualler, husband, father, religious Brother and education leader.
