About the Author, Saint Augustine

Garry Wills studied for the priesthood, took his doctorate in the classics, and taught ancient and New Testament Greek at Johns Hopkins University. He is now a professor of history emeritus at Northwestern University.

Saint Augustine (354-430) also wrote The City of God and was a formidable theologian devoted to the mastery of the texts of scripture.
