Book Description

Excerpt from The World Problem Capital, Labor, and the Church The social message of the Catholic Church is of interest to all mankind. She alone succeeded in solving the greatest of social problems in the past, and her lessons are of equal importance in the present time. Hence it is to all alike that this book is addressed. In its plain exposition of Catholic morality and its application of historic facts there is no animosity or ill will towards any person, whether capitalist or laborer, Catholic or Protestant, Jew or unbeliever, but a burning desire to be of service to all. Though issued in time of war and serving as a preparation for the return of peace, the book is not restricted in its purpose to any particular period. It deals with the fundamental problems of modern life and with the unchanging principles of social justice and Christian charity as studied from the Catholic point of View. It is a work, therefore, equally necessary in all seasons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
