The Trial of Dr. Briggs Before the General Assembly (1893) is a historical non-fiction book written by R. J. Laidlaw. The book recounts the trial of Charles Augustus Briggs, a Presbyterian minister, who was accused of heresy by the Presbyterian Church in 1892. The trial took place before the General Assembly, the highest governing body of the Presbyterian Church, and was a landmark event in the history of American Protestantism. The book provides a detailed account of the trial, including the charges against Briggs, the arguments presented by both sides, and the final verdict. It also explores the broader theological and cultural issues that led to the trial, including the rise of biblical criticism and the tension between traditional and modernist views of Christianity. Laidlaw's book is based on extensive research and draws on a variety of primary sources, including transcripts of the trial and contemporary newspaper accounts. It provides a fascinating insight into a pivotal moment in the history of American religion and is an important resource for anyone interested in the history of Protestantism in 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.
