Description
Many works have been devoted to the attitude of the Catholic Church toward Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. This study will discuss the attitude toward Christian refugees who fled from Nazi rule. How did the Catholic community in America provide for the admission and absorption of Catholic refugees? What were the differences between Catholics' response and that of Protestants or Jews to the fate of their co-religionists?
