All of this is well known to any reader of Day's wonderful "On Pilgrimage" column which for years graced the pages of the Catholic Worker. What Merriman has done, however, is to thicken our understanding of the resources Day drew on. She probes deeply into Day's connection with Saint Procopius Abbey in Illinois where she fed both her interest in Byzantine Christianity and her love for things monastic. There is also a very fine chapter on Day's enthusiastic support for the retreat movement developed by the late (and controversial) Jesuit priest, Onesimus Lacouture, and its furtherance by Fathers John J. Hugo and Pacifique Roy who were close to the Catholic Workers.
