Memoir of John Mason Peck D.D.

“The reappearance of the Memoir of John Mason Peck . . . after being out of print for nearly a century is a noteworthy event, indeed. Students of sociology and theol­ogy, but most of all historians, will wel­come its return, and they will all be deeply indebted to the Press of Southern Illinois University for republishing it. . . . One of the sparkling features of this editorial and publishing effort is the masterful sixty-eight-page introduction by Dr. Paul M. Harrison.”—The Catholic Historical Review
