Gothic Arches, Latin Crosses: Anti-Catholicism and American Church Designs in the Nineteenth Century
Ryan K. Smith
Blending history with the study of material culture, the author sheds light on the ironic convergence of anti-Catholicism and the Gothic Revival movement in nineteenth-century America. He shows how architectural and artistic features became tools through which Protestants adapted to America's commercialization.
