Description: |
From the parlor organ inside to the stained glass and Gothic arches outside, the ideal Christian Victorian home reflected the flowering of domestic religion in America. This title shows that Protestants and Catholics differed markedly in their understanding of the home as sacred space. It addresses cultural assimilation, and religious antagonism. |
