About this title

Synopsis

Converts to Rome is a historical book written by William Gordon Gorman in 1884. The book provides a comprehensive list of over three thousand Protestants who have converted to Roman Catholicism since the beginning of the nineteenth century. The author has meticulously researched and compiled the names of individuals who have made the transition from Protestantism to Catholicism, along with the date and place of their conversion. The book is divided into chapters based on the country of origin of the converts, including England, Ireland, Scotland, and America. Each chapter provides detailed information about the religious and social background of the individuals, their reasons for converting, and the impact of their conversion on their families and communities. The author also includes a section on notable converts, such as John Henry Newman, who was a prominent Anglican theologian before converting to Catholicism and becoming a cardinal. Converts to Rome is a valuable resource for historians, theologians, and anyone interested in the history of Christianity. It sheds light on the religious and social dynamics of the nineteenth century and provides insight into the reasons why individuals chose to convert to Catholicism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
