Orion Ruhane, a Jesuit professor at Regis College in Denver, was surprised by a statement made by a lecturer one night in Albuquerque: "I have never met an Indian who was a real Christian." In response, Orion relays the story of his mother, Emily Rising Moon. With captivating prose, William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., tells the life stories of Emily Rising Moon and her grandson Orion Ruhane, descendents of the "True People," or as the French called Potawatomi, the People of the Fire. Daughter of Rising Moon describes the Christian faith among Native American, along with the importance of maintaining cultural traditions such as art and storytelling.

Eminent and prolific historian Father William Barnaby Faherty, SJ, offers a unique take on the history of the Mound City with Centuries of St. Louis. This new history is told through profiles of important citizens, some prominent, all respected. From Marguerite Blondeau Guion LeCompte, the first woman to give birth in St. Louis, to the venerable sportswriters Bob Burnes and Bob Broeg, Faherty offers insight into the events and people that define St. Louis by documenting their lives and historical contexts. Many facets of society are covered in this book, including education, politics, religion, sports, activism, philanthropy, and business. Faherty chose to write about achievers rather than celebrities. These achievers made notable accomplishments in their respective fields and the events that surrounded them.

Centuries of St. Louis

The history of the Catholic Church in St. Louis is dominated by strong personalities and architectural grandeur. In Catholic St. Louis: A Pictorial History, rich text and photography capture the people and places that have defined Catholicism in a historic, and historically Catholic, city. Renowned historian William Barnaby Faherty, S.J., delivers concise historical sketches of the integral people and the landmark houses of worship; and photographer Mark Scott Abeln captures nearly forty different area churches in majestic fashion. From the eighteenth century Holy Family Church in Cahokia to the overwhelming Cathedral Basilica to the modern St. Anselm s in Creve Coeur, St. Louis s churches are significant, not to mention spectacular. This coffeetable book truly presents Catholic St. Louis in all its splendor.
