ABOUT THE BOOK: Part biography of wartime hero and MEDAL OF HONOR recipient Father Emil Kapaun, part history of the Catholic Church, part detective story, and part journey of faith, THE SAINT MAKERS takes us inside the mysterious, modern-day process of the “making of a saint,” while simultaneously chronicling an unlikely alliance between country priest Father Hotze and cosmopolitan Italian canon lawyer Dr. Andrea Ambrosi.  As the two piece together the life of a long dead Korean War hero and military chaplain, they delve into a much bigger question— what makes a person truly worthy of the Congregation of Saints, in the eyes of the Catholic Church and 1.2 billion Catholics?

 

Father Emil Kapaun is the only chaplain to be awarded the Medal of Honor and his cause has been taken up by public figures as diverse as President Obama and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

 

After this election especially, readers will be ready for an uplifting story of courage, service, unity and faith.

 

Joe Drape, and interviewees from the book, are available for press leading up to and during December 1, 2020 – his prior media appearances include PBS News Hour, NBC’s “TODAY”, and ESPN.
