A Concise History of Christianity in Canada

This single-volume history draws on recent advances in scholarship in both English and French Canada to present a comprehensive account of the development of the country's Christian Church. While tracing the institutional development of various churches, each section focuses on five themes in particular: relations between church and state; missionaries and prospective converts; interdenominational relations; lay religious practices and outlook (with special attention, where appropriate, to ethnicity, gender, and class); and finally, the impact of Christianity on Canadian society and culture.
