Reading edition
Alexis Clerc, Sailor and Martyr, New York, Sadlier, 1879. See especially chap. XII: “Father Clerc and his pupils.” It may be interesting to add that the American edition of this biography is dedicated to the memory of Father Andrew Monroe, S. J. (grand-nephew of President Monroe), officer in the American Navy and a convert to the Catholic faith, who, after spending his religious life, like his friend Father Clerc, chiefly in the humble duties of a professor, died at St. Francis Xavier College, New York, 1871.
