Book Description
Excerpt from Rules and of the Society of St. Vincent De Paul: And Indulgences Granted by the Sovereign Pontiffs, Both to the Members and to the Benefactors of the Society It becometh the Roman Pontiff to enrich, in a special manner, with the heavenly treasures of the Church, those pious Societies that labor with all care and zeal in the performance of works of Christian charity. Wherefore, having been earnestly solicited by the President and Council General of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul, which was originally established in Paris, to grant to that Society some indulgences, as well plenary as partial. We have thought fit that their pious supplication should be freely acceded to. Wherefore, We mercifully grant, in the Lord, a plenary indulgence to all and every the members, whether attached to the now instituted Council General at Paris, of the said Society, or to particular Councils of Paris and other cities, who, being truly penitent, shall have confessed their sins and received the Holy Communion, provided that they shall have been present at all, or at three out of the four meetings of the Council which are holden in the month.

Book Description
Raymond Sickinger’s biography of Antoine Frédéric Ozanam is more than a chronological account of Ozanam’s relatively brief but extraordinary life. It is also a comprehensive study of a man who touched many lives as a teacher, writer, and principal founder of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul. Ozanam’s life encompassed a particularly turbulent time in French history, and he was a witness to two major political upheavals—the overthrow of the Bourbon dynasty that brought Louis Philippe to power in 1830, and the end of Louis Philippe’s “Bourgeois Monarchy” as a result of the 1848 Revolutions. This book examines Ozanam’s life in a number of ways. First, it explores the various roles he played throughout his life—son, sibling, student, member of and an inspiration for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, spouse and father, scholar, and spokesperson for the common people. Second, it examines the lessons he learned in his life, including the importance of friendship, the meaning of solidarity, and the role and purpose of suffering, among many others that he shares with those who study his thought and work. It concludes with an account of Ozanam’s enduring legacy. Antoine Frédéric Ozanam feared that he would not have a fruitful career, but his legacy remains a powerful testimony to his greatness. This book will interest scholars wishing to know more about Ozanam and the period in which he lived, as well as a wider audience, including those who are aware of or are members of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul.

Book Description
Ireland's tumultuous heritage combined with the promise of cosmopolitan New York to forge a new Irish-American immigrant identity. Between the Great Irish Famine and the creation of the Irish Free State, the New York Irish world preserved as much from the old country as it adopts from the new. The Shamrock and the Lily illuminates a set of remarkable transatlantic connections dominated by the road to Ireland's independence, in an absorbing study of a people driven from a troubled past toward freedom for themselves and for those they left behind.
