The History of Cotner University, written by Leon A. Moomaw and published in 1916, is a comprehensive account of the founding and early years of Cotner University, a Christian liberal arts college located in Nebraska. The book covers the university's origins as a Bible school in the late 19th century, its growth and development into a fully accredited college, and its role in shaping the educational landscape of the Midwest.Moomaw's history is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different period in the university's development. The first section provides an overview of the early years of the school, from its founding in 1889 by Charles L. Cotner to its incorporation as a college in 1909. This section also includes biographical sketches of the school's founders and early administrators.The second section of the book focuses on the growth and expansion of Cotner University in the early 20th century. Moomaw describes the construction of new buildings, the establishment of new academic programs, and the increasing enrollment of students from across the United States. He also discusses the university's financial struggles during this period and the efforts of its leaders to secure funding and support from donors and the community.The final section of the book is devoted to the role of Cotner University in the wider educational and religious landscape of the Midwest. Moomaw examines the university's relationship with other Christian colleges and universities, its involvement in the broader evangelical movement, and its impact on the intellectual and cultural life of the region.Overall, The History of Cotner University provides a detailed and engaging account of the early years of this important institution of higher education. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian colleges and universities in the United States, as well as for those interested in the history of Nebraska and the Midwest more broadly.Including The Early Religious And Educational Movement Of The Christian Church In Nebraska.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
