A superb resource for revealing the history and expansion of Methodism in America. They originated as a devotional group within the Anglican Church and in 1784 became the independent Methodist Episcopal Church. Prior to the Civil War Methodism had grown to become the largest American Protestant denomination. In turn it spawned numerous denominations through schisms caused by doctrinal differences and the morality of slavery. S&S #29155; See Burr I, pp. 291-295.
