France And The Establishment Of The American Catholic Hierarchy: The Myth Of French Interference 1783-1784 by Jules A. Baisnee is a historical account that challenges the commonly held belief that the French government played a significant role in the establishment of the American Catholic Church hierarchy in the late 18th century. The author argues that while France did provide some financial and diplomatic support, the decision to establish a Catholic hierarchy in the United States was primarily made by the American Catholic community itself. Baisnee draws on a range of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and official documents, to provide a detailed analysis of the events leading up to the establishment of the hierarchy, as well as the role played by various individuals and organizations. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of American history, French history, and religious studies, as well as anyone interested in the relationship between religion and politics in the early years of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
