About the Book

   The author’s intention is to dispel the conventional wisdom that events subsequent to the 1960s were in fact caused by experiences in the 60s. The causes and roots of events during that eventful decade took place hundreds of years before and continue to this day.

   During the 60s, there were 227 Roman Catholic churches in the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens, and 249 educational institutions serving 1,000,000 Catholics. Schools enrolled 234,000 students with 6586 teachers. This story reflects a microcosm of these statistics.
