Distinguished historian Leslie Tentler explores lay religious practice and the impact of clergy on Catholic life and culture as she seeks to answer the question, What did it mean to be a "good Catholic" at particular times and in particular places? In its focus on Catholics' participation in American politics and Catholic intellectual life, this book includes in-depth discussions of Catholics, race, and the Civil War; Catholics and public life in the twentieth century; and Catholic education and intellectual life. Shedding light on topics of recent interest such as the role of Catholic women in parish and community life, Catholic reproductive ethics regarding birth control, and the Catholic church sex abuse crisis, this engaging history provides an up-to-date account of the history of American Catholicism."-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20210714. 650 $a Catholics $x History $z United States. 650 $a Catholics $z United States $x Intellectual life. 650 $a Catholics $x Intellectual life. 650 $a Catholic Church $z United States. 941 $a 1 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20211102012610.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DD6A7A743BA411EC87B0DC564EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
