Review and commentary by Brian Coyne on Francis Ravel Harvey's biography of Roger Pryke, "Traveller to Freedom". Roger Pryke was an Australian Catholic priest who had a huge influence on Catholicism in the Spirit of Vatican II who eventually became disillusioned by the institution and left the priesthood in the early 1970s. His story continues to have high relevance to the challenges facing Catholicism today -- albeit that it is extremely doubtful that anyone who controls the institution agenda today is capable of hearing what the broad body of the baptised are saying.
