| The Battle for Amerindia by Solange Strong Hertz |
| From the back cover: Most Catholics today have experienced it -- a deep prejudice against the Catholic Church and the role the Church played, not only in human history, but also in the cultural and philosophical establishment of Western Civilization. Especially in North America, a strong anti-Catholic bias has lived and breathed for centuries, but especially since 1776. Some have asked: Why has this anti-Catholicism been such a public part of the life of the Church in America, even though the Church was responsible for the establishment of educational systems, hospital systems, and some of the greatest charitable undertakings in the history of this country? In The Battle for Amerindia, Solange Hertz delves into this question more thoroughly perhaps than any other modern author has done. Going back five hundred years to begin this story, Solange Hertz demonstrates just how deep rooted this bias against the Catholic Church really is. Long before it was colonized, America was under the control of the Dark Side, and remained as such until the "Empress of the America"--Our Ldy of Guadalupe--claimed it for Christ the King. Ever since that time, anti_Catholic forces have been waging war to reclaim the "Old New World." From the Revolutionary War, to the Mexican Wars, to the Civil War and up to the present, irrefutable evidence of the anti-Catholic consipiracy is never difficult to find between all the lines of American history. "Solange Hertz has provided a great service to teachers, parents and Catholics everywhere who are looking for accurate historical background on the Church's role in the history of North America. The Battle for Amerinida should serve as a catalyst to revolutionize the history programs of Catholic home schools everywhere." ... Michael J. Matt |
