Book Description

Excerpt from A Selected Bibliography of the Religious Denominations of the United States This list is designed to furnish a guide to the study of the churches and religious denominations of the United States. This purpose is best served by a selected list rather than by a complete bibliography. It aims to pre sent to the student, in systematic form, references to the best books on the history, doctrines and polity of each church. Wherever year-books or journals of conferences are published by a denomination or in its interest, these are recorded as furnishing valuable statistical information. A few of the most eminent or most representative weekly journals and the leading church reviews are included. In all cases where obtainable, publisher, place and date of publication and price have been given. It 18 thought that this little list will be of value to clergymen, theological seminaries and Christian workers generally. In attempting to give to each student a list that will not only help him to understand his own de nomination better, but will guide him to the best that has been written about other denominations, my underly ing purpose has been to contribute something to church union, and still more to Christian unity.
