Explores how Maryland's Catholics drew upon their long-standing traditions - advocacy of separation of church and state, a sense of civic duty, and a determination 'to live at peace with all their neighbors,' in Bishop Carroll's phrase - to take a leading role in the early government, financing, and building of the new capital.
