Scotland's Methodists 1750-2000 . Margaret Batty
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
This definitive history traces the origins and evolution of Methodism in Scotland, through the breakaway 'Connexions' of the nineteenth century to wartime and ecumenical activity in the twentieth century. In the broad context of Christian activity in Scotland, 1750-2000, it looks at the activity of lay 'Local Preachers' and Sunday School teachers, men and women who broke new ground as they shared the gospel in light of their workaday experience. The book brings to light many otherwise unknown local characters, telling a human story, which shows how personal aspirations and disappointments fitted into the larger picture. Based on extensive original archival research, Scotland's Methodists makes a strong and distinctive contribution to the history of religion in Scotland over the last three centuries. It will appeal to academic historians and students of religion, to Methodists in local communities across Scotland, as well as to the wider community of Methodist scholars in the UK and USA.
