		Dag Hammarskjold left behind the manuscript of this book to be published after his death.
		It is a remarkable record of the spiritual life of a man whose public image was universally known and admired -- a record that reveals the extent of his commitment to the Way of the Cross.
		But as we read it, the outer image of the Secretary-General persists and heightens the sense of loneliness Hammarskjold conveys, the severity with which he marked his own spiritual conduct and measured the integrity of his soul, his conception of life as a summons, and his premonition of death.

		The Dag Hammarskjold Memorial Scholarship Fund was established to keep alive the memory and spirit of the second Secretary-General of the United Nations who was killed in an airplane crash on 17 September 1961 during a peace mission to the Congo.
		The initiative for the Fund came from working journalists at the United Nations who had seen Hammarskjold close up as he steered the United Nations through the early and difficult years of the Cold War and decolonization.
		Since Dag Hammarskjold died in an effort to help a newly independent African country maintain its independece, the correspondents thought it fitting to establish a program to help journalists from developing countries cover the work of the U.N. General Assembly.

		Information has now come to light that Mr Hammarskjold was murdered as a result of CIA (US Central Intelligence Agency) and MI5 (British Secret Service) involvement in the placement of a bomb on Mr Hammarskjold's aircraft on 18 September, 1961 in Northern Rhodesia, as it was then known.
		The alleged plot to assassinate United Nations secretary general Dag Hammarskjöld 37 years ago was the brainchild of at least two British security agencies — MI5 and the Special Operations Executive — and the CIA, top-secret documents show.
		As can be seen by reading his biography Dag Hammarskjold was a hands on Secretary General of the United Nations and was not a puppet of either Britain, the US or Russia.
