Volume Three of Robert W. Hayman’s panoramic Catholicism in Rhode Island and the Diocese of Providence covers the rise of Catholic educational and social welfare institutions; the charity drives begun by Bishop Hickey; the growth of new parishes and missions; the Church’s efforts to relieve suffering during the Great Depression; its role on the homefront in Word War II; its relation to the labor movement; the Rose Ferron phenomenon; morality campaigns; friction between church and state; and, most vividly, the protracted conflict between Bishop Hickey and the Sentinellists, whose militant drive for autonomy in their French-speaking parishes went all the way to Rome. Extending through the administration of the much-loved Bishop Keough, this volume presents a comprehensive view of the many facets of the Church’s activities in the life of Rhode Island during the first half of the twentieth century.
