American Catholic $12.76 In this magisterial history of the rise of the Catholic Church, author Charles Morris draws on extensive archival research to inform his exhaustive study of Catholicism`s rise from an immigrant religion to its current position as "America`s most powerful church." Along the way, he captures the full range of American Catholics–dissidents and the heroically faithful, entrepreneurs, benefactors and sponsors, labor priests, and activist priests, as well as scores of lay people–the humble and the famous, the young and the old. As a one-volume history, "American Catholic" is comprehensive in scope, although it is the 20th century that provides a particularly rich field for the author; his ethnographer`s focused attentiveness allows him to mine insight after insight about the challenges with which modernity now confronts the Church. |

Great American Catholic Eulogies $29.95 “Eulogies have a long and important history in remembering and commemorating the dead. As Thomas Lynch notes in his Foreword, eulogies are meant “to speak for the ages, to bring homage and appreciation, the final appraisal, the last word and first draft of all future biography.” In Great American Catholic Eulogies, Carol DeChant has compiled fifty of the most memorable and instructive eulogies of and by Catholics in America. > The eulogies in Great American Catholic Eulogies span the American experience, from those who were born before the Declaration of Independence was written to a modern sports legend, from pioneers in social justice, healthcare, and the arts to founders of distinctly American religious orders, and from all the varied ethnic cultures who contribute to the great cultural milieu that is the United States. Great American Catholic Eulogies reveals the powerful value of a well-crafted eulogy: It reveals what a particular Catholic life has taught the eulogist.” |

Catholic and Feminist: The Surprising History of the American Catholic Feminist Movement $36 “In 1963, as Betty Friedan’s “Feminine Mystique” appeared and civil rights activists marched on Washington, a separate but related social movement emerged among American Catholics, says Mary Henold. Thousands of Catholic feminists–both lay women and women religious–marched, strategized, theologized, and prayed together, building sisterhood and confronting sexism in the Roman Catholic Church. In the first history of American Catholic feminism, Henold explores the movement from the 1960s through the early 1980s, showing that although Catholic feminists had much in common with their sisters in the larger American feminist movement, Catholic feminism was distinct and had not been simply imported from outside. >Catholic feminism grew from within the church, rooted in women’s own experiences of Catholicism and religious practice, Henold argues. She identifies the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), an inspiring but overtly sexist event that enraged and exhilarated Catholic women in equal measure, as a catalyst of the movement within the church. Catholic feminists regularly explained their feminism in terms of their commitment to a gospel mandate for social justice, liberation, and radical equality. They considered feminism to be a Christian principle.>Yet as Catholic feminists confronted sexism in the church and the world, Henold explains, they struggled to integrate the two parts of their self-definition. Both Catholic culture and feminist culture indicated that such a conjunction was unlikely, if not impossible. Henold demonstrates that efforts to reconcile faith and feminism reveal both the complex nature of feminist consciousness and the creative potential of religious feminism.” |

A Black Patriot and a White Priest: Andre Cailloux and Claude Paschal Maistre in Civil War New Orleans $37.73 In A Black Patriot and a White Priest, Stephen J. Ochs chronicles the intersection of two lives in Civil War New Orleans — that of the first black military Civil War hero, Captain Andre Cailloux of the 1st Louisiana Native Guards, and that of the Reverend Claude Paschal Maistre, the lone Catholic clerical voice of abolition in New Orleans and one of the first white radicals to emerge in the city. Their paths converged on a humid day in July 1863, when Maistre, in defiance of his archbishop, officiated at a large public military funeral for Cailloux, who had perished while courageously leading a doomed charge against the Confederate bastion of Port Hudson. The story of how Cailloux and Maistre arrived at that day and of what happened as a consequence provides a prism through which to view the complex interplay of slavery, race, radicalism, and religion during American democracy’s most violent upheaval.Born a slave, Cailloux eventually gained his freedom, attained respectability as a cigar maker within antebellum New Orleans’s Afro-Creole society, and became one of the first black officers in the Union Army during the Civil War. In death, Cailloux became a powerful mythic symbol of heroism and freedom for Afro-Creole and English-speaking blacks, as well as for their white radical allies — such as the French-born Father Maistre — who regularly invoked his memory in their campaigns for emancipation, suffrage, and civil rights.The enigmatic Father Maistre, a maverick throughout his priestly career, allied himself with the cause of Afro-Creole radicalism and prodded his church to do more on behalf of black Catholics. Suspended by Archbishop Jean-Marie Odin for his outspokenabolitionism, Maistre defiantly maintained a schismatic parish for seven years and publicly supported Radical Reconstruction until his submission to a new archbishop in 1870.Combining social, African American, Civil War, and church history, A Black Patriot and a White Priest provides a vivid |

A Catholic Cold War: Edmund A. Walsh, S.J., and the Politics of American Anticommunism $41.85 This book is the first biography in 42 years of the priest and educator whom historians have called ?the most important anticommunist in the country.? Edmund A. Walsh, as dean of Georgetown College and founder in 1919 of its School of Foreign Service, is one of the most influential Catholic figures of the 20th century. Soon after the birth of the Bolshevik state, he directed the Papal Relief Mission in the Soviet Union, starting a lifelong immersion in Soviet and Communist affairs. He also established a Jesuit college in Baghdad, and served as a consultant to the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal. A pioneer in the new science of geopolitics, Walsh became one of Truman’s most trusted advisers on Soviet strategy. He wrote four books, dozens of articles, and gave thousands of speeches on the moral and political threat of Soviet Communism in America. Although he died in 1956, Walsh left an indelible imprint on the ideology and practical politics of Cold War Washington, moving easily outside the traditional boundaries of American Catholic life and becoming, in the words of one historian, ?practically an institution by himself.? Few priests, indeed few Catholics, played so large a role in shaping American foreign policy in the 20th century. ?A major contribution to our knowledge of a man whose well-deserved reputation as one of America’s foremost experts on Soviet communism made him an influential voice in shaping American public opinion [on] the American response to Soviet foreign policy. . . .Walsh, rather than the lamentable Senator Joseph McCarthy, deserves to be regarded as the most important American Catholic anticommunist of the twentieth century.??Richard Gid Powers, author of Not withoutHonor: The History of American Anticommunism ?Patrick McNamara’s thoroughly researched and crisply written biography is an important contribution to American political history.??Charles R.Morris, author of American Catholic: The Saints and Sinners Who Built America’s Most Powerful Chu |

A Great Feast of Light: Growing Up Irish in the Television Age $0.99 Celebrated TV critic John Doyle has penned an Irish memoir that gives a portrait of a boy and his country transformed by television. Funny, insightful, and engaging, A Great Feast of Light begins in the small town of Nenagh, where young John’s father purchased the family’s first television in 1962, and ends in 1979 with the Pope’s historic visit to the Emerald Isle, the appearance of “Dallas” on Irish TV, and twenty-two-year-old John’s escape to North America.By day, John was schooled by the Christian brothers in the valor of Irish rebel heroes and the saintliness of Catholic martyrs. But in the evenings, television conveyed more subversive messages: American westerns, “I Love Lucy, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Laugh-In, The Muppet Show, Starsky and Hutch, and Monty Python suggested ways of life that were exciting and free. News coverage of American civil rights and women’s rights protests, Irish street riots, bombings, and Bloody Sunday clashed with Catholic conservatism. While the “global village” was yanking Ireland out of its past, one intelligent and sardonic boy was taking notes. His story, at once a charming coming-of-age tale and a compelling social history, is a welcome addition to the literature of Ireland. |

A Heart, a Cross, and a Flag: America Today $0.99 On the morning of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan sat down to write — and produced at least one essay every week through September 11, 2002. The candid and sometimes heart-wrenching pieces collected here are full of insights and observations on how the events influenced our perceptions of what it means to be a New Yorker, an American, a patriot. By training our gaze on everyone from firemen, the President, and Catholic and Muslim mourners to news anchors, bus drivers, and school kids, these essays depict America in all its beauty, diversity, and strength. With a sharp but compassionate eye, Noonan balances the immediacy of the tragedy with its broader meaning for our world. At once outraged and tender, street smart and down-home wise, A Heart, a Cross, and a Flag is a first draft of history and an apt tribute to everything we lost and learned. |

Begin by reading about the Christian groups, denominations, that developed in the time between Jesus’ crucifixion and the formal origins of the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches. Learn how the Roman empire came to accept Christianity as its religion, of the cooperation and struggles between the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches and how that led to their separation.

Back in England the Quakers experienced persecution that encouraged them to move to America. John Wesley began what evolved into Methodism. The American Revolution caused American churches of English origin to separate from their English roots and to become such as the Episcopalians and the Methodists. Read about the history of the many denominations that have come into being in The United States.

A restless landscape: Building Nashville history and Seventh and Drexel. $49.99 Drawing upon manuscript sources, historic photographs, census data, building plans, historic maps, and other evidence, this study examines the histories of the four inhabitants of the address at Seventh and Drexel Avenues as a case study of the changing social history of the downtown Nashville area during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It explores how the histories of the inhabitants—an estate owned by several of the city’s white booster elites, an African American Roman Catholic parochial school, the southeastern flagship store of Sears, Roebuck, and Co., and the Nashville Rescue Mission—shaped and were shaped by the different built environments on the property and how those inhabitants used the property as a powerful tool to promote the traditioned social identities they represented. As a case study, the dissertation shows how the changes in ownership reflected the cultural and social changes that occurred in downtown Nashville during the period. |

A History of the Penal Laws in Ireland
The Treaty of Limerick of 1691 marked the third great defeat for the Catholic cause in seventeenth century Ireland. The Irish Parliament, which was now entirely Protestant began reinforcing their position as the ascendancy in Ireland. Catholics and Protestant non-conformists were again liable for payment of tithes to the established church and a comprehensive series of new anti-Catholic legislation was passed aimed at keeping Catholics in permanent subjection. Another factor influencing the implementation of this legislation was the fact that huge numbers of Irish soldiers were in the armies of Louis XIV of France, who might form the main body of an invasion force of Ireland, that the Catholics would rally to in an attempt to restore the Stuarts to the throne. A comprehensive series of Penal Laws were implemented including those which debarred Catholics from sitting in parliament; from holding any government office; from voting; from entering the law profession, the army or the navy; from inter-marrying with Protestants and from holding firearms. In addition, a system was devised which forbade Catholics to buy land or take leases for longer than thirty-one years. In the 1760s an emerging Catholic middle class began to become more vocal in their opposition to the Penal Laws. In addition, there was a growing opposition group in the Irish parliament that advocated resistance to British interference in Irish affairs, to counter this movement the British administration adopted a sympathetic attitude towards the Catholics as the lesser of the two evils. The War of American Independence forced the issue when France declared on Britain and rumours of an invasion were circling. It was thought wise to conciliate Catholics as Catholic recruits were needed for the army. Relief legislation was passed later in 1778 which dismantled some of the restrictions imposed on Catholics in relation to property. However, the pace of reform was painfully slow leading many reformers to despair of peaceful means leading in part to the unsuccessful 1798 rebellion. In May 1823, Daniel O’Connell launched the Catholic Association to campaign for Catholic Emancipation which was largely achieved by 1829.
