Carmel in America: A Centennial History of the Discalced Carmelites in the United States is a book written by Charles Warren Currier and published in 1890. The book provides a detailed account of the history of the Discalced Carmelites in the United States, starting from their arrival in the country in the mid-19th century up to the time of publication. The Discalced Carmelites are a Catholic religious order that originated in Spain in the 16th century and are known for their contemplative and ascetic lifestyle.The book covers the establishment of the first Discalced Carmelite monastery in the United States in Maryland in 1790, as well as the subsequent founding of other monasteries across the country. It also discusses the challenges faced by the Carmelites in the United States, including financial difficulties and the struggle to maintain their religious traditions in a new and unfamiliar environment.In addition to providing a historical account of the Carmelites in the United States, the book also includes biographical sketches of some of the most prominent Carmelite figures in the country, such as Mother Mary Teresa of St. Joseph and Mother Mary Joseph of the Sacred Heart.Overall, Carmel in America: A Centennial History of the Discalced Carmelites in the United States is a comprehensive and informative account of the history of this important Catholic religious order in 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.
