Combining copious historical research with the author's personal experience, this book details the Catholic response to the violent social unrest, extreme poverty, and moral degeneration of the working class in late 19th-century France. The author, a member of an influential group of young Catholic intellectuals, priests, and military officers, describes the efforts to evangelize the working class through the creation of social clubs that provided recreation, education, and a sense of community. Within the broader context of extensive social and economic change brought about by the Industrial Revolution, the author examines the specific challenges faced by France after the horrific events of the Franco-Prussian War and the Paris Commune. Ultimately, the work provides a unique perspective on the interplay between religion and social change, exploring the enduring impact of the Catholic Church on French society.
