'Gearoid Barry's highly engaging biography of Sangnier looks beyond the abysmal 12-year span of the Third Reich. He demonstrates convincingly that post-Second-World-War Christian Democracy owed much to the efforts of Sangnier and his contemporaries stress[ing]the transnational as well as the national nature of his subject. Gearoid Barry is to be congratulated for his insightful and original analysis of people and events central to the creation of contemporary Europe.'- Conan Fischer, European History Quarterly, 45 (1)
