Nearer, My God by William F. Buckley Jr.

An Autobiography of Faith

A candid autobiographical meditation on a public intellectual’s Catholic faith, charting his upbringing, moments of doubt and consolation, and the ways belief shaped his private life and public commitments. Mixing personal anecdotes, theological reflection, and wry literary and political observations, the book explores prayer, grace, the authority of the Church, and the reconciliation of faith with reason and civic engagement. Throughout, the narrator offers an intimate account of how religious conviction sustained him through loss, aging, and the moral questions of modern life.
