Urban Catholic Education: The Best of Times, the Worst of Times is
a sequel to a 2010 work with the similar title, Urban Catholic
Education: Tales of Twelve American Cities. Together, these works
explore the historical contours of the Catholic parochial school
movement in America's divergent urban centers from colonial times
to the present. The first volume covers the years of growth and
expansion up to 1970 and the second volume continues the story and
discusses the years of decline and retrenchment over the past forty
years. In this second volume, ten scholars - many affiliated with
Catholic schools and universities - address the recent history of
parish schools in as many cities across the country. Not only do
the essays address common themes, they also articulate the elements
that make Catholic education distinctive in each city. The book is
a valuable touchstone for Catholic educators and scholars who work
in and for a national Catholic educational establishment; that
establishment includes 238 colleges and universities and several
thousand Catholic high schools among other institutions.
