Deathbed Conversions tells the true stories of 13 people, some famous, others obscure, who found faith at the end of their lives – minutes, days, or months before death. Edmisten shares insights into the sometimes life-long process of conversion of:

• Oscar Wilde, poet, writer, and out-of-control hedonist
• Dutch Shultz, mobster, murderer, extortionist, gambler , and “Public Enemy Number One”
• Patricia Neal, ambitious actress and Academy Award Winner – and abortion survivor
• John Wayne, wildly beloved actor, drinker, and adulterer
• Alexis Carrel, Nobel Prize Winning doctor and brilliant inventor, and skeptic
• King Charles II, Buffalo Bill, Wallace Stevens, Kenneth Clark, John von Neumann, Aubrey Beardsley, Heywood Broun, and Gary Cooper.

Author and EWTN host Mike Aquilina stated that Deathbed Conversions, “has all the attractive power of the supermarket tabloids – big celebrity names, sex, violence. But with the grace, eloquence, and profundity of Augustine’s Confessions.”
