"The task of Dr. Bacon is to cover the entire field and to show in one connected view the origin and progress of the Christian forces that have operated so beneficently in American society. To this task the author has brought the necessary learning, sense of proportion, and catholicity of spirit. The story reads like a romance. It opens with the swift advance and sudden downfall of the Spanish missions, succeeded by a French success more wide and rapid and a French failure not less sudden and complete. Then in a period extending through a century and more, permanent Christian colonization takes place in Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas, New England, the Middle Colonies, and Georgia, under the leadership of Anglicans, Liberal Catholics, Huguenots, Dutch colonists, Swedish Lutherans, Quakers, Pilgrims, and Puritans. The religious fervor with which the colonies were planted perceptibly cools before the century ends, but in turn the Great Awakening spiritually revives the land...Again there follows a period of religious declension, which the War of Independence renders more distracting and depressing, and which brings the American church, in the closing years of the eighteenth century, to the 'lowest low-water mark of the lowest ebb-tide of its spiritual life.' Then, in the opening years of the present century, there comes a second awakening, sufficiently strong to stay the advance of infidelity and to start the church afresh on a wonderful career of beneficent activity. The great denominational schools and missionary and philanthropic societies spring into existence, and the church begins its fierce struggle with slavery, intemperance, dueling, and other wrongs. The Civic War, while it degrades and brutalizes some, proves a 'rude school of theology' to others, increasing their intelligence and hardening their moral fiber. Since the overthrow of secession and slavery there has been a 'vast expansion of church activities,' conspicuously manifest in the marvelous growth of the Y.M.C.A., the W.C.T.U., the Y.P.S.C.E., and like associations, the foreign, home, and city mission societies, the Sunday school, the Salvation Army, and other organizations. "He who first reads the preceding volumes in the series will find in this an admirable summation of all that has gone before; while he who reads this volume first will be strongly inclined to search the others for detailed information on a thousand interesting topics." -The American Journal of Theology, Vol. 2, No. 1 (Jan., 1898) Chapter I Providential Preparation for the Discovery of America Chapter II Spanish Christianity in America Chapter III French Christianity in America Chapter IV Antecedents of Permanent Christian Colonization Chapter V Puritan Beginnings of the Church in Virginia Chapter VI Maryland and the Carolinas Chapter VII Dutch Calvinists and Swedish Lutherans Chapter VIII The Church in New England Chapter IX The Middle Colonies and Georgia Chapter X The Eve of the Great Awakening Chapter XI The Great Awaking Chapter XII Close of the Colonial Era Chapter XIII Reconstruction Chapter XIV The Second Awakening Chapter XV Organized Beneficence Chapter XVI Conflicts of the Church With Public Wrongs Chapter XVII A Decade of Controversies and Schisms Chapter XVIII The Great Immigration Chapter XIX The Civil War Chapter XX After the War Chapter XXI The Church in Theology and Literature Chapter XXII Tendencies Toward a Manifestation of the Unity of the American Church
