| Publisher Description: In the country of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Muslims, Orthodox Christians and Catholics have been living side by side for many years, but they have not always gotten along. Twenty years have passed since they were at war with each other. How can neighbors of different faiths live together in peace? Pope Francis, head of the Roman Catholic Church, paid a visit to Bosnia on June 6, 2015. This is the true story of a Muslim family of carpenters who designed and made a chair in honor of this occasion. |
Contributor Bio(s): Salinas, Stefan Antony: - Stefan Salinas was born and reared in that great cosmopolitan cowtown known as Houston, Texas. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Houston in 1997 and has since busied himself with painting, public works and working on books. At some point, he grew tired of his car and felt the West coast currents pulling him, so he hopped over to San Francisco. |
