""Unitarianism In America"" is a comprehensive book written by George Willis Cooke that explores the history and development of Unitarianism in the United States. The book delves into the origins of the Unitarian movement, tracing its roots back to Europe and the Enlightenment era before discussing its emergence in America during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Cooke examines the key figures and leaders of the Unitarian movement in America, including William Ellery Channing, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Theodore Parker, and their contributions to the development of Unitarian theology and philosophy. He also discusses the role of Unitarianism in shaping American culture and society, including its influence on education, literature, and social reform movements such as abolitionism and women's rights.Throughout the book, Cooke provides a detailed analysis of the theological beliefs and practices of Unitarianism, including its rejection of traditional Christian doctrines such as the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus Christ. He also explores the various controversies and debates that arose within the Unitarian movement, such as the tension between traditional and liberal theology and the debate over the role of reason and emotion in religious experience.Overall, ""Unitarianism In America"" is a comprehensive and insightful examination of the history, philosophy, and impact of Unitarianism in the United States. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American religion, philosophy, and social reform.The progressive tendencies went silently on; and step by step the old beliefs were discarded, but always by individuals and churches, and not by associations or general official action. Even before the middle of the eighteenth century there was not only a questioning of the doctrine of divine decrees, the conception that God elects some to bliss and some to perdition in accordance with his own arbitrary will, but there was also developing a tendency to reject the tritheism[1] which in New England took the place of a philosophical conception of the Trinity, such as had been held by the great thinkers of the Christian ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

George William Curtis was born in Providence, February 24, 1824. From the age of six to eleven he was in the school of C.W. Greene at Jamaica Plain, and then, until he was fifteen, attended school in Providence. His brother Burrill, two years older, was his inseparable companion, and they were strongly attached to each other. About 1835 Curtis came under the influence of Ralph Waldo Emerson, who was heard by him in Providence, and who commanded his boyish admiration. Burrill Curtis has said of this interest of himself and his brother that it proved to be the cardinal event of their youth; and what this experience was he has described.

The aim I have had in view in writing this book has been to give a history of the origin of Unitarianism in the United States, how it has organized itself, and what it has accomplished. It seemed desirable to deal more fully than has been done hitherto with the obscure beginnings of the Unitarian movement in New England; but limits of space have made it impossible to treat this phase of the subject in other than a cursory manner. It deserves an exhaustive treatment, which will amply repay the necessary labor to this end.
