Baptist History in America (16 vols.)
Overview
The history of Baptists in America is as expansive and colorful as the states that make up the union. Add years of this history to your library with 16 classic regional histories. Study Baptist church growth across the American patchwork through historical accounts of Baptists in Virginia, Kentucky, Maine, New Jersey, Texas, Missouri, and more.
Works of regional history abounded in the years following the Civil War. Joining scholars and students of all persuasions recording American history, pastors and church members preserved on paper the work of their Baptist forefathers, taking advantage of the opportunity to consult principal actors in church planting, missions, and ministry who were still living.
This collection of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century works compiles the stories by state and region, including details that would be left out of broader portraits. The variety of voices and approaches offer readers a rich and detailed record of the first centuries of American Baptist history.
