Reviews

An insightful piece of cultural history, explaining how Catholics built their own institutions, debated among themselves how these institutions served a greater good, and struggled to grow and adapt their schools to a more-secular age. The scholarship is profound. --Terry Golway author of Frank and Al: FDR, Al Smith, and the Unlikely Alliance That Created the Modern Democratic (7/28/2021 12:00:00 AM) Quinn deftly tells the story of Seton Hall University, gracefully elucidating the struggle to remain faithful as a Catholic institution while seeking a place among the great universities of the United States. Seton Hall University is a story that mirrors that of the Catholic Church in New Jersey and, indeed, in the nation. --Augustine J. Curley, OSB New Jersey Catholic Historical Commission
