<DIV></DIV> <p>Who is Tom Monaghan?</p> <p>Is he the four-year-old kid whose father died on Christmas Eve and whose mother sent him to an orphanage and then a juvenile detention home?</P> <p>Is he the entrepreneurial genius who built Domino's Pizza from a hole-in-the-wall pizzeria in Michigan into an American brand as world-conquering as Ford or Coke?</P> <p>Is he the religious visionary who sold Domino's for $1 billion to create an orthodox Catholic university, law school, and special interest law firm with the goal of transforming America to reflect his conservative values?</P> <p>He's all that and more. With extensive interviews with friends and enemies plus unprecedented access to the man himself, but wholly without his authorization, <I>Living the Faith</I> illuminates Tom Monaghan, the man and the myth.</P> <p><I>Living the Faith</I> is the much-needed, definitive biography of one of America's most fascinating and controversial business and religious figures. A sympathetic but critical portrait of the man and his works, this book is for believers, nonbelievers, and agnostics; for conservatives, liberals, and independents; for the rich, the poor, and the shrinking middle class. Mainly, however, this book is for those who want the facts about Tom Monaghan---and the truth about the effect religion had on one man and the effect that man had on the world.</P>
