Excerpt from A New History of Methodism, Vol. 1 of 2 For some time a History of Methodism has been required which should utilize the results of recent study upon the origins of the Methodist churches, manifest the sense Of their oneness which all feel increasingly, and set forth world wide Methodism as a branch of the Church Catholic with its own notes and an essential unity underlying its several forms in many lands.

Excerpt from The Birth of Methodism in America: With Photographs T is nearly a century and a half since the birth of Methodism in 1 America. From that angel-guarded cradle has grown a family numbering about one fifth of the population of the United States. This wonderful growth from so humble a birth has attracted the attention of the world. It has wielded a tremendous power in spreading the gospel of jesus Christ throughout the land which has had so much to do in shaping our present civilization. The purpose Of this little volume is not to give the history of Methodism in the United States, but to give all the history that is obtainable Of the Father Of Methodism in America. This is best accomplished by publishing the oration and addresses of the emi nent Methodists who participated in the ceremonies on the occa sion Of the removal Of the remains of the Father Of Methodism in America, and at the unveiling of the beautiful monument at Cam bridge, New York, erected by the National Local Preachers' Asso ciation of the' Methodist Episcopal Church to his memory. The aim Of the publisher is to perpetuate the name of the Father Of Methodism in America, and his contemporaries - names quite unknown, perhaps, to many of the present generation, but names honored and revered by all Methodists familiar with the early history of the Methodist Church in America. The beautiful half-tone photographs in this little volume are priceless. The plates from which they are taken are the only ones in existence and cannot be duplicated, thus making this little book a historical souvenir of great value.

Excerpt from A History of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Year 1766 to the Year 1792 In speaking of the authorities on which I have relied for information in the compilation of this his tory, I feel it an act of justice to refer particularly to Lee's History of the Methodists, and to Bishop As bury's Journal, principally because I think they have not been appreciated according to their worth.

Excerpt from The History of Methodism, Vol. 1: American Methodism The first Methodist sermon in America of which we have anything like a definite account was preached in a private dwelhng In the colonial city of New York, early in 1766, by Philip Embury, an emigrant carpenter, who had been stirred to do his duty by'a zealous Palatine woman named Barbara Heck. The credit of protecting and promoting the success of this infant society belongs to an Englishman, Captain Thomas Webb, a warm-hearted Methodist soldier in the forces of His Britannic Majesty King George III.
