Synopsis

This book examines the contentious topic of religion and public schooling in 19th century New York City. The text explores the arguments of those who sought the removal of religious texts and teachings from the public school curriculum, and those who believed such teachings were vital for the preservation of morality. It is an exploration of the complex relationship between church and state, and one that has only gained in relevance in the present day.
