Thank You, St. Jude by Robert A Orsi
St Jude, patron saint of hopeless causes, is the most popular saint of the American Catholic laity, particularly among women. This study describes how the cult originated in 1929, traces the rise in Jude's popularity, and investigates the reasons for so many women turning to St Jude for help.
Robert A. Orsi, professor of religious studies at Indiana University, is also the author of The Madonna of 115th Street, published by Yale University Press.
