Excerpt from Historical Records and Studies, Vol. 9
Bologna is known as a cardinalitial see. Since 1582 nearly all its archbishops have been cardinals. Pius X, however, had little regard for such precedents unless the occupants of such sees were men of eminent vir and ability, and this speaks well for the exceptional merit of Mgr. Della Chiesa. Bologna was also the birthplace of Popes: Honorius II, Lucius 11, Alex ander V, Gregory XIII and Innocent IX.

This book recounts the fascinating history of the Sulpicians, a French religious order that played a pivotal role in the growth of the Catholic Church in the United States from the late 18th century onward.
