The first-ever study of Mexican-descent Catholicism in the city, this title illuminates a previously unexplored facet of the urban past and provides present-day lessons for American communities undergoing ethnic integration and succession.
Chicago Cat+¦lico not only describes the faith practices of Mexican immigrants, but also explores the social worlds of Catholicism and the ways in which the Church helped mark neighborhoods, assist immigrants in their transitions to the frigid Midwest, and provide people a sense of home. This book is an important and timely contribution to the growing field of Latino religious history.”—Felipe Hinojosa, author of Latino Mennonites: Civil Rights, Faith, and Evangelical Culture
