American Freedom and Catholic Power is a book written by Paul Blanshard that was first published in 1949. The book is a critique of the Roman Catholic Church and its influence on American politics and society. Blanshard argues that the Catholic Church is a threat to American democracy and freedom because of its hierarchical structure, its opposition to birth control and other reproductive rights, and its attempts to influence public policy on issues such as education and censorship. The book also explores the history of Catholicism in America, including the Church's efforts to gain political power and influence during the early 20th century. Blanshard argues that the Catholic Church has a long history of opposing religious freedom and promoting intolerance towards other religions and belief systems. Overall, American Freedom and Catholic Power is a controversial and provocative book that sparked a national debate about the role of the Catholic Church in American society. While some critics accused Blanshard of anti-Catholicism, others praised the book for its bold and insightful analysis of a powerful institution that had long been shrouded in secrecy and controversy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
