About this Item

472p. A red hardcover book in very good condition, with just a bit of edgewear to boards and tanning to page edges. Clean and tight. Undated; the book references events taking place in 1898 and the publishing company was founded in 1911, so a 1910s publication date is likely. Illustrated with black and white engravings, many of which depict Catholics persecuting or torturing Protestants. The Menace Publishing Company of Aurora, Missouri styled itself as "The World's Headquarters for Anti-Papal Literature" and published a weekly anti-Catholic newspaper as well as many anti-Catholic books and tracts. This book argues that Catholic priests are power-hungry and corrupting influences in the United States, citing especially their supposed vendetta against public schools and immoral dealings with women in the confessional.
