If Catholic Adventure Has a Name, It Must Be McCracken

If you weren’t aware of McCracken, you should know that he’s been described as Indiana Jones with a Rosary.”

Engineer, adventurer, big-game hunter, defeater of nefarious villains . . . and of course husband and father. The McCracken Adventures take place in the early years of the twentieth century, when many of the philosophies that formed the modern imagination were taking shape. Consequently, McCracken’s adversaries are representatives of the Culture of Death. What is the Catholic response to nihilism, communism, eugenics and many others? McCracken provides young readers with a guide through the minefield of twentieth-century thought. But the focus is on adventure. So come along and dodge the bullets, flee from the Cossacks and head-hunters, jump out of zeppelins, dive to the ocean floor or soar above the clouds in a biplane, because life is an adventure!
