History of the American Episcopal Church is a comprehensive account of the origins and development of the Episcopal Church in America, authored by Samuel David McConnell and originally published in 1916. The book delves into the early history of the Church, tracing its roots back to the Church of England and the establishment of the first Episcopal parish in America in 1607. The author then explores the growth of the Church during the colonial period and its involvement in the American Revolution, as well as its role in shaping the new nation in the years that followed. McConnell also examines the various theological and social movements that have shaped the Episcopal Church over the years, including the Oxford Movement, the rise of Anglo-Catholicism, and the Church's response to social and political issues such as slavery and civil rights. The book also covers the Church's expansion westward, the development of its institutional structures, and its relations with other churches both in America and abroad. Throughout the book, McConnell provides detailed accounts of key figures in the Church's history, including bishops, theologians, and other important figures. He also includes a wealth of primary source material, including excerpts from letters, sermons, and other documents, to provide readers with a firsthand glimpse into the Church's past. Overall, History of the American Episcopal Church is an authoritative and engaging account of the Church's rich history, offering readers a fascinating glimpse into the evolution of one of America's oldest and most influential religious institutions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
