If you’d like to learn more about the Jesuits in the United States, I can’t recommend a better place to start than The American Jesuits, by Father Raymond Schroth, a Jesuit who teaches at St. Peter’s College in Jersey City. It’s short, well written, and has lots of great anecdotes about the colorful characters who populated the ranks of the Society in this country through the years. If you’re a fan of the Jesuits and want to learn more about them, I think you’ll enjoy this one!
