Adventism in America Book

Seventh-day Adventism emerged out of the social and religious turmoil of mid-nineteenth-century America, an era that also produced-directly or indirectly-the Latter-day Saints, Christian Science, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Pentecostals. Although a dynamic, if relatively small, entity on the religious scene, Seventh-day Adventism has a history that is neither well known nor well understood. Written by Adventist scholars who felt a need to better establish and understand their denominational identity and the foundation of their theological beliefs, this book offers a comprehensive, non-apologetic history of the denomination.
