Nathan Soderblom (1866 1931) was Archbishop of Uppsala in the Church of Sweden and a pioneering force behind the modern ecumenical movement. A vocal advocate for peace and justice during and after World WarI, he led the Life and Work movement (a precursor to the World Council of Churches) throughout the 1920s and was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1930 in recognition of his many contributions. In this new English translation of his award-winning biography, Jonas Jonson digs through research old and new to help readers understand who Soderblom was, how he thought, and what he did, placing his groundbreaking ecumenical work within its academic, ecclesial, and political contexts. Particularly noteworthy is Jonson s account of Soderblom s memorable three-month visit to the United States in 1923, when he rubbed shoulders with many Swedish-American Lutherans and even had a private conversation with Calvin Coolidge in the White House.
