The Making of American Catholicism
Michael J. Pfeifer highlights the importance of region to the history of American Catholicism in five compact parish histories, ranging from New Orleans to Los Angeles, and from Iowa to northeastern Wisconsin to New York City.

Credulity
More than two decades after the late professor of English Jenny Franchot observed that American literary scholars had relegated religion to an invisible domain, studies of religion and literature are ascendant.

The study makes a convincing case that our understanding of the controversies over slavery amon…
