By Louis Gunnemann

This is the reissue of a classic interpretive essay in the history of American Christianity and the development of the United Church of Christ.

With a new foreword and a new chapter by Charles Shelby Rooks, this expanded edition brings the story of the UCC up to date. This volume is a must for anyone interested in the history and development of this vitally important Protestant denomination.
