Book Description

Excerpt from A History of the Goshenhoppen Reformed Charge, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania (1727-1819): Part XXIX of a Narrative and Critical History Prepared at the Request of the Pennsylvania-German History Good, asked him to go to Holland, in order to copy and photograph the records which had been found. He car ried out this commission in the summers of 1897 and 1898, with the result that, on the basis. Of the newly found docu ments, the history of the Reformed Church in the United States could be entirely rewritten. This was done by Dr. Good in his important book History of the Reformed Church in the United States, 1725 Reading, 1899. The writer himself had the privilege of translating and editing two volumes of documents, in 1903 the Minutes and Letters of the Coetus of Pennsylvania, and in 1916 the Life and Letters of the Rev. John Philip Boehm. They have placed German Reformed Church History in America upon a safe foundation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
