Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of Father Van Den Broek, O. P: A Study of Holland and the Story of the Early Settlement of Wisconsin To perpetuate the memory and life long labors of a great and noble man is the object of this little work. That Father Van den Broek´s name should not be lost in oblivion, nor he, like Moses, lie buried in an unknown grave, we think no apology is necessary for presenting his biography to the public. The story of Father Van den Broek relates to the early missionary work of the pioneer priests of the Central West among the Indians and first settlers in the Ohio Valley, and the story of the settlement and growth of the Catholic church in the Fox River Valley. It would seem from the ethical and religious points of view that if pupils could only learn thoroughly that these early missionaries were men of broad culture and liberal views, of most refined character and of thorough education it would be well worth while to have them study such a book as this. It will be noted that the early missionaries were not always men only of zeal and of no social position. Such men as Father Van den Broek, Father Gallitzin and hundreds of others, were men of large means for their time, hence their sacrifice of wealth, civilization, and home is surely worth our consideration.
