A dramatic account of spiritual struggle, \u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e has inspired hundreds of thousands of readers since it was first published in 1964.\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e is distinctive, as W.H. Auden remarks in his foreword, as a record of \"the attempt by a professional man of action to unite in one life the \u003ci\u003evia activa\u003c\/i\u003e and the \u003ci\u003evia contemplativa\u003c\/i\u003e.\" It reflects its author's efforts to live his creed, his belief that all men are equally the children of God and that faith and love require of him a life of selfless service to others. For Hammarskjd, \"the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action.\" \u003ci\u003eMarkings\u003c\/i\u003e is not only a fascinating glimpse of the mind of a great man, but also a moving spiritual classic that has left its mark on generations of readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dag Hammarskjold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0307277429\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780307277428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/10\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.98h x 5.34w x 0.66d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 182","brand":"Dag Hammarskjold","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44050922111231,"sku":"9780307277428","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d7db382d-ae53-4909-9572-d7c67563ec86.jpg?v=1685010032","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/markings-dag-hammarskjold-9780307277428","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
