Francis Asbury: Founder Of American Methodism And Unofficial Minister Of State is a biography written by William Larkin Duren. The book tells the story of Francis Asbury, who played a significant role in the development of American Methodism during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Asbury, who was born in England in 1745, came to America in 1771 as a missionary and quickly rose through the ranks of the Methodist Church. He became the first bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1784 and spent the next 32 years traveling thousands of miles on horseback to spread the gospel and establish new churches. The book explores Asbury's personal life, including his relationships with family and friends, as well as his leadership style and his impact on American society. Asbury was not only a religious leader but also a political figure, and the book examines his influence on the early American government. Asbury was a strong supporter of the American Revolution and played a crucial role in the formation of the new nation. The book is well-researched and includes many primary sources, including Asbury's journals and letters. It provides a comprehensive look at Asbury's life and legacy and sheds light on the early history of American Methodism. The book is suitable for anyone interested in American religious history, the history of the Methodist Church, or the early history of the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
