About this title

Review:

"This balanced, readable history of Hispanic ministry in New York is perhaps the finest work available on this scale concerning Puerto Rican Catholics on the mainland."--Review for Religious

" ... a valuable book. For its historical perspective alone it deserves to be read and studied in detail by persons who are engaged in the rapidly expanding area of 'Hispanic ministry.' "--Sociology of Religion
