Description

"Convent Cruelties, Or How Girls Become the Brides of Christ," Henry A. Sullivan, Los Angeles, 1912. The work, by an author who said he was a former Roman Catholic monk, purported to reveal the abuses of the convent system for nuns in the Church. It includes many woodblock prints, as well. With bumping, small tears, creases and soiling to the wrappers and generally clean pages, the condition is fair.
