Anti-Catholicism has had a long presence in American history. The
Civil War in 1861 gave Catholic Americans a chance to prove their
patriotism once and for all. Exploring how Catholics sought to use
their participation in the war to counteract religious and
political nativism in the United States, Excommunicated from the
Union reveals that while the war was an alienating experience for
many of 200,000 Catholics who served, they still strove to
construct a positive memory of their experiences in order to show
that their religion was no barrier to their being loyal American
citizens.
