Selected from all sources, ecclesiastical, lay, and non-Catholic, these documents attempt to illustrate American Catholic history from 1493 to 1986. Ellis's definition of a document is "any written record that would illustrate an event from a contemporary point of view" (Preface). Each volume has an index. See also Pontificia americana: A Documentary History of the Catholic Church in the United States (E112).
