A History Of The German Baptist Brethren In Europe And America

""A History of the German Baptist Brethren in Europe and America"" by Martin Grove Brumbaugh is a comprehensive account of the origins, development, and growth of the German Baptist Brethren, a religious group that emerged in Europe in the 18th century and later migrated to America. The book explores the early history of the Brethren in Germany, their migration to the United States, and their spread across the country during the 19th and 20th centuries. It also delves into the Brethren's beliefs, practices, and contributions to American society, including their involvement in the abolitionist movement, their pacifist stance during times of war, and their establishment of colleges and universities. Brumbaugh's work draws on a wide range of primary sources, including church records, diaries, and personal correspondence, to provide a detailed and engaging account of this fascinating religious group. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American religion and the role of faith in shaping American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
