To celebrate the archdiocese of Boston's bicentennial, this informative volume chronicles a wide range of Boston history with a particular concentration on religion.

Contributors--such as Libby MacDonald Bischof, Francois Gauthier, Carol Hurd Green, and Rev. Joseph M. O'Keefe, SJ--also provide keen insights into the future of the city and its faith in this valuable reference.
