Bolstered by a wave of immigration in the early 20th century, a
polyglot American Catholic Church struggled to forge a secure
subculture in a society that regarded Catholics with suspicion. In
the decades that separated the Roaring Twenties from Vatican II,
Catholic Action inspired laypeople to participate in the work of
the Church's hierarchy. In endeavors that ranged from religious
education and liturgical renewal to labor activism and immigrant
outreach, this movement permitted the Church to maintain its
distinctiveness while simultaneously engaging with the wider
American culture. Contributors use archival research to describe
and interpret an array of lay movements across the United States
during the middle decades of the 20th century.
