For the Union and the Catholic Church : Four Converts in the Civil War Paperback / softback
by Max Longley
Paperback / softback
Description
Five men joined the Catholic Church in the mid-1840s: a soldier, his bishop brother, a priest born a slave and two editors at odds with each other.
For the next two decades they were in the thick of the battles of the era-Catholicism versus Know-Nothingism, slavery versus abolition, North versus South.
Much has been written about the Catholic Church and about the Civil War.
This book is the first in more than half a century to focus exclusively on the intersection of these two topics.
