Synopsis

This book is an examination of Georgetown University's history, and the deep historical roots of the Jesuit priests who founded it. The author traces the origins of Georgetown back to the foundation of the Maryland colony in the 17th century and the establishment of a Catholic mission there by Jesuit priests. The book also explores the challenges and transformations faced by Georgetown and its Jesuit leaders throughout the centuries, including the suppression of the Jesuit order in the 18th century and the anti-Catholic sentiment that prevailed during parts of American history. The work sheds light on the lasting impact of the Jesuits on American education and the significant contributions they have made to the nation and the world.
