Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the rich tapestry of Catholic life in New York City, this book highlights the growth of the Catholic population from 200,000 to over 1.2 million between 1850 and 1900, driven by waves of European immigration. It chronicles significant milestones, including the establishment of the first Catholic church in the 1780s and the completion of St. Patrick's Cathedral in 1879. The narrative also delves into the diverse personalities, places, and events that have shaped the city's Catholic identity over the past two centuries.
