Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Address of the President, Lawrence F. Flick, M. D., To the American Catholic Historical Society: December, 19th, 1893
Catholic Americans need a literature having the zest of Catholicity and the spirit of Americanism. Such a literature must be inspired by American heroes and produced by Cath olic Americans. We have many American Catholic writers of great ability, but we have not collected the data to give them inspiration. The result is that our Catholic literature is full of foreign traditions and ideas. Our Society aims to remedy this by placing before our writers the objects bearing upon Amer ican Catholic life.
