Danger on the Doorstep: Anti-Catholicism and American Print Culture in the Progressive Era Paperback – Download: Adobe Reader, September 15, 2006

Justin Nordstrom is clearly one of the brilliant minds of his generation. This is a remarkable book characterized by sparkling prose and sheer intellectual brilliance. The author unfurls the intricate history of American anti-Catholicism in the decades before the First World War. He makes a valuable contribution not only to our understanding of religious conflict in the United States, but to our understanding of the anxieties, tensions, and antagonisms that characterized the reform movements of the early twentieth-century. I eagerly await forthcoming work from the keyboard of this razor sharp intellect.
