For church historians, seminarians, and those who have interest in the past, present, and future developments within the Episcopal and broader religious landscape.

The hope of this volume is to open a conversation across the church that will continue in the future.

This thorough, carefully researched history sets church events against the background of social changes. This third revised edition will be up-to-date through the events of the 2012 General Convention of the Episcopal Church.
