The book Life of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin: Prince and Priest is a biographical work written by Sarah M. Brownson and published in 1873. The book chronicles the life of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin, a Russian prince who converted to Catholicism and became a priest in the United States in the early 19th century. The book covers Gallitzin's early life, his conversion to Catholicism, and his decision to become a priest despite his noble background. It also explores his work as a missionary in rural Pennsylvania, where he founded several churches and schools and worked tirelessly to spread the Catholic faith. The author draws on a variety of sources, including letters, diaries, and other historical documents, to provide a detailed and engaging portrait of Gallitzin's life and work. She also offers insights into the social and political context of the time, including the challenges faced by Catholics in the early years of the United States. Overall, Life of Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin: Prince and Priest is a fascinating and informative work that sheds light on an important figure in Catholic history and provides a window into the early years of 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.
