The Catholic Bishops in the Confederacy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781365219566)

The Catholic Bishops in the Confederate States strongly supported the cause of Southern Independence, the validity of the Confederate Government, and the responsibility of all Southerners to recognize their duties as Confederate citizens. Catholic Bishops endured the vicissitudes of Lincoln's War along with their flocks, and did everything in their power to assist the Confederate cause, though unsuccessful in the end as Federal troops overran the States and Territories of the Confederacy. This work tells the forgotten story of these loyal prelates, their diplomacy and episcopal work for the Confederate States of America.
