Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[A] vital history . . . it adds immensely to our understanding of the place of religion, especially Catholicism, in the nineteenth-century United States.” —American Historical Review Frontiers of Faith: Bringing Catholicism to the West in the Early Republic examines how Catholics in the early nineteenth-century Ohio Valley expanded their church and strengthened their connections to Rome alongside the rapid development of the Protestant Second Great Awakening. In competition with clergy of evangelical Protestant denominations, priests and bishops aggressively established congregations, constructed church buildings, ministered to the faithful, and sought converts. Catholic clergy also displayed the distinctive features of Catholicism that would inspire Catholics and, hopefully, impress others. The clerics’ optimism grew from the opportunities presented by the western frontier and the presence of non-Catholic neighbors. The fruit of these efforts was a European church translated to the American West. Using extensive correspondence, reports, diaries, court documents, apologetical works, and other records of the Catholic clergy, John R. Dichtl shows how Catholic leadership successfully pursued strategies of growth in frontier regions while continually weighing major decisions against what it perceived to be Protestant opinion. Frontiers of Faith helps restore Catholicism to the story of religious development in the early republic and emphasizes the importance of clerical and lay efforts to make sacred the landscape of the New West. “Dichtl’s work is thoroughly researched and meticulously documented, but he employs enough anecdotes of fiery priests, recalcitrant laymen, and saintly (and not-so-saintly) bishops to give his narrative a lively pace.” —Ohio Valley History “Dichtl has produced one of the finest studies of Catholicism in the early republic.” —Journal of the Early Republic

De Gallitzin: Founder of Loretto and Catholicity, in Cambria County, Pa;, Apostle of the Alleghanies The Author of this sketch who, for almost a quarter of a century, had been bound by the closest bonds of amity with the Reverend Prince, has been frequently urged by respected friends, to compose and publish a notice of his life. The reason of this application to him, doubtless, was the well known fact of the great friendship between the parties - the circumstances of his having assisted at his dying moments - his having twice preached his funeral sermon, viz: first, on the day of his interment; again, on the removal of his remains to the new monument; his having lectured several times on his life and services, besides his being well acquainted with the history of Loretto, and its large congregation. The writer could not resist any longer the many appeals made to him to give to the public all the reminiscences he had of his lamented friend. Moreover, he became alarmed, lest many traits of his life would quickly be forgotten and perish, if not at once secured and perpetuated by the press. If this labor of love was not attended to presently, it was said, that the few remaining contemporaries of the Rev. Prince Gallitzin would soon sink into the tomb, and thus much important material for his life would be lost forever.
