Patriotism is a Catholic Virtue: Irish-American Catholics, The American Church, and the Coming of the Great War
Provides extensive evidence of the relentless defense of Catholic virtue conducted by diocesan newspapers, and offers evidence that the Church may well have played the decisive role in guiding its Irish American faithful along paths that, while conservatively promoting Irish nationalism, did not jeopardize an 'American First' policy for Catholics.
