Scandal in the Parish by Karen E Carter

An eye-opening examination of rural French Catholicism through stories told by priests and parishioners in church court records.
"In this well-written and clearly argued study, Carter forcefully corrects the notion that Catholicism declined in importance in the period before the RevolutionReinforcing the important work of Timothy Tackett and others, she shows that popular anticlericalism was a result of the Revolution, not a cause of it." Jeremy Hayhoe, Université de Moncton
Karen E. Carter is associate professor of history at Brigham Young University.
