With a new introduction by John R. Vile (Middle Tennessee State University) that explains its relevance, this catechism, originally published in 1889 and written for use in Catholic schools and colleges, explores the United States Constitution from the viewpoint of Catholic issues. Furey points out the Constitution’s harmony with Catholic views and its relation to canon law. It provides a window into the role of Catholic education in the United States, and insight into more recent increases in the number of Protestant schools and homeschoolers in America. Originally published: New York: The Catholic Publication Society Co., 1889. xvi, 156 pp. Francis T. Furey [1852-?] was a Philadelphia high school teacher, author and translator.
