Sixty-five years after the Allied victory over Japan in the Pacific War, Paul Glynn chronicles the life of his brother and fellow member of the Order of the Rising Sun, Father Tony Glynn.
Glynn, a superb athlete in school, a boxer, runner, footballer and cricket player, came from a long line of Irish and Scottish Catholics who emigrated to Australia in the 19th century.
Telling the story of the Catholic Church and its oppression in England, while fusing this historical narrative with his own family's backgrounds, Glynn grounds this memoir in the history of religious freedom.
