Explores the historiography of relations between early Catholic and Protestant settlers,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dialogue On The Frontier: Catholic And Protestant Relations, 1793-1883 (Hardcover)
Dialogue On The Frontier: Catholic And Protestant Relations, 1793-1883 explores the historiography of relations between early Catholic and Protestant settlers of the United States of America. Far more than simply a dry recounting of historical events, Dialogue On The Frontier strives to offer historical perspective and insight on modern Catholic-Protestant issues that cause confusion to this day: the controversy regarding the choice of a Catholic chaplain for the U.S. House of Representatives, background issues pertaining to the removal of the Bible and prayer from the school classroom, the debate over vouchers for private religious schools, and more. Chapters focus upon specific notable religious figures and divides the ongoing debate between Catholics and Protestants into discrete eras, such as "Archbishop John Carroll: The New World and the Opening Dialogue, 1634-1793" and "Archbishop John Baptist Purcell: The Debate Turns into a Monologue 1855-1872". A scholarly, sober, and exhaustively researched and annotated scrutiny, especially recommended for religious history shelves.
