"In April 1990, Father Michael Lapsley SSM was the target of a letter bomb from South Africa, losing both hands and an eye." "Priest and partisan describes how a deeply religious man grappled with his commitment to pacifism and his church in the face of what he came to recognize as one of the greatest crimes against humanity - the apartheid system. Lapsley's membership of the African National Congress often put him into conflict with the church hierarchy." "The book presents the events and experiences that converted Michael Lapsley, an Anglican (Episcopalian) priest, into a freedom fighter in his adopted homeland of South Africa and then how, as one more victim of apartheid's terror, he became a healer and a voice for reconciliation in the post-apartheid era."—Jacket.
