Synopsis

2006 Something More Publications softcover( oversize trade paperback), Thomas G. Young. This is a story of the Catholic Church's encounter with the new world in New York City and beyond. In the early stages, 'Catholic' meant immigrants - uprooted, poor, often suspect in the eyes of others if not despised by them for their religion, but for all that with a fierce energy and resolve to make a better life for themselves and their families. To do that, immigrants needed an equally fierce hope that God would see them through it all. -
