Oxford caricature of John Henry Newman, 1840 [public domain / Wikimedia Commons]

The following chronological documentation is drawn from entries in my two books:
The Quotable Newman (Manchester, New Hampshire: Sophia Institute Press, 2012)
Section: “Conversion (His Own)”
Section: “Conversion (His Own)”
Section: Ch. 6: “Conversion (to Catholicism)”
Sometimes different portions of the same letter are in the two different books, which will be noted. I note to whom letters were written, and also indicate primary sources or secondary sources where I obtained the letters.
My two books also contain Newman’s thoughts on Catholic conversion in general, his hindsight reflections on his own conversion from after 1845, and his criticisms of Anglicanism; as well as related remarks on development and other aspects of Church history. But those citations will not be included in this list (minus ten noted exceptions).
