The Rest Is History

CHAPTER

The Resonances of the Revolution of 1848

Most of what we think of as the Catholic Church is actually born in that moment. And you also argue that modern contemporary Catholicism dates back to this time as well. So the resonances between then and now, you find very striking. The book is Revolutionary Spring, Fighting for a New World 1848 to 1849. It's a huge book, but enormously readable. I can't recommend it enough. Tom, you enjoyed reading it, didn't you? I really did."
