The book Life Of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin: Prince And Priest is a biography of the life of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin, written by Sarah M. Brownson and first published in 1873. Gallitzin was a Russian prince who converted to Catholicism and became a priest in the United States in the early 19th century. The book covers his life from his birth in 1770 to his death in 1840, detailing his upbringing as a member of the Russian aristocracy, his conversion to Catholicism, and his decision to become a priest. The book also explores Gallitzin's work as a missionary in the United States, where he founded several Catholic churches and worked to promote the faith in a largely Protestant country. Brownson's biography draws heavily on Gallitzin's own writings and correspondence, as well as accounts from his contemporaries. Overall, Life Of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin: Prince And Priest provides a detailed and engaging portrait of a remarkable figure in Catholic history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
