Reviews

[Jordan Stephens · Rating 4 out of 5]

For better or for worse, this book was very text-book-y. It was very fact-based and left out critique or personal opinion, which I appreciated. The Episcopalians is one of a dozen books in publisher Praeger's Denominations in America series. Though this book was dry at times, I wouldn't be surprised if I picked up another book in this series at some point in the future.

[Thom · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fairly solid if unremarkable history, useful as a survey for those interested in the history of the church up to the 20th century.

Good info for church history class

[Greg · Rating 5 out of 5]

A well written summary of the development of the Episcopal Church in the U.S. from the Colonial Era through the present. The book discusses how the Church formed and the people who were influential in Church, government, and society.
