Atkinson, John
The Class Leader, His Work and How To Do It
Publisher: Hunt & Eaton, 1889 New York.
Book. Book condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall "The class-meeting is a peculiar, conspicuous, and powerful agency of Methodism. Class Leaders are invaluable and indispensable co-workers with the ministry. It is remarkable that an institution of such potency, and a class of laborers so numerous, gifted, and useful, have not received larger attention from Methodist writers. OPnly two or three small volumes and a few tracts, specifically devoted to this subject, are extant in the whole range of American Methodist publications, and of these scarcely any were written within the last two decades. A fresh, practical, and comprehensive treatise is, therefore, an acknowledged want. Whether the present volume shall, in any degree, supply this want, its readers will determine. Its material has been carefully collaged, and its preparation throughout has been painstaking. It is offered to the Church with the hope that it may, to some extent, supplement the too few excellent works on this subject.." 338 pages. Book is in VERY GOOD condition. No dust jacket.

After that one should be made acquainted with the denomination into which he enters that he may be intelligently loyal to its interests. This book attempts to exhibit the spiritual and doctrinal origin of Methodism, and to trace its historical and organic development, thereby to show that it was divinely appointed to a mission unlike that of any other body of believers, and therefore entitled to a place among the religious forces of our time.." 74 pages. This is a VERY SCARCE TITLE that is difficult to find! Book is in VERY GOOD condition; covers clean and bright; no discoloration to text pages; binding tight. No dust jacket.

Silverbrook Methodist Church 1880-1965
Publisher: Silverbrook Methodist Church, 1965 Wilmington, DE.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall "..This book has been written in the spirit of truth as that truth dwells in a heart and mind filled, for the purposes of this book, with the sunshine of a growing love and joy for the Silverbrook whose life it tries to describe. No matter all that. If I say that the story of Silverbrook Church begins on a pretty day in June, 1880, I am almost absolutely certain that my statement is truthful in fact as well as in spirit, for the story of Silverbrook begins at an open-air worship service under a beech tree in a meadow, and that crowd would have swat in rain to take part in an evangelistic service, even eighty-five years ago when men were men? (I'd be almost willing to bet it was a sunny day, but I won't bet, because you know the Methodist stand on gambling, and Silverbrook is, after all, a Methodist church.) I believe that men were men - frail and fallible humans -even then, in 1880. I believe that people are people forever and that they have been for a long, long time. This history will show other things to be perennial, too, things other than people. Water in the basement of the church and occasional trouble with janitorial service are as perennial as the desire to worship God; the questionable behavior of boys in the worship service and certain abuses of the privilege of smoking as perennial as concern about the Heavenly Kingdom. That is not to deny that changes have occurred during Silverbrook's eighty-five years. Chang, too, continues forever. The Silverbrook carriage shed has long been replaced by a garage, gas lamps by electric, open air meetings by a half-million dollar plant. The story of Silverbrooki has romance, humor, sadness, sacrifice - everything that you'll find in the story of any life well-lived and still quite alive.." Illustrated with period photographs. 101 pages. Book is in GOOD or better condition. No dust jacket.

Kulp, George B.
Truths That Transfigure: Faith Tonics
Publisher: God's Revivalist Press, 1927 Cincinnati, OH.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall George B. Kulp was a prominent Methodist minister of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He became nationally known as an evangelist and leader of the International Apostolic Holiness Union. "Fifteen sermons for the saints published at request of laity and ministry." "A layman of experience and interest in Christian work wrote me a letter in which he said, 'Brother Kulp you have a number of books of sermons that are for preachers and sinners. Why not give us some of your sermons to the saints? I will take two hundred copies and dispose of them if you will.' A minister, one of the most successful pastors in the Holiness ranks in Ohio, said that if I would have them printed, he would take one hundred copies. I also have received numerous requests for a book of my poems, which have been published in the last ten years in the Revivalist. In answer to the call, which I believe is in the Divine approval, I herewith, by the grace of the Publishers of God's Revivalist, send forth these sermons with an eye that is single to the glory of God. May His blessing rest on every reader of these messages and may such derive comfort and blessing is the humble prayer of Your Brother and Servant in Christ, George B. Kulp." 246 pages. Book is in GOOD condition. Some soiling to early pages; binding tight. No dust jacket.

Paul, John
The Soul Digger, or, Life and Times of William Taylor
Publisher: Taylor University Press, 1928 Upland, IN.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall John Paul is President of Taylor University. William Taylor was an American Missionary Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, elected in 1884. Taylor University, a Christian college in Indiana, carries his name. "..The object of our volume is to fix the historic facts for future generations, and to introduce in true perspective a man whose unselfishness and intelligent zeal will stimulate the nobler aspiration of those who discover him. A by-product of the volume, we dare to say, will be first class entertainment and spiritual uplift to the reader. As we combed the archives and learned of the amazing exertions, self denials and achievements of William Taylor's life, rejecting compensations that might have been his, finally to die poor, and denying himself the sweets of a home life that he seemed to love more than did the average man, the author's mind continually recalled the unintended compliment of the priests, when Jesus was dying: 'He saved others, himself he cannot save.'" 318 pages.

Stevens, Abel
A Compendious History of American Methodism
Publisher: Phillips & Hunt, 1867 New York.
Book. Book condition: Good to Very Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall Stevens provides a detailed history of the Methodist Episcopal Church. "The Book Concern has for some years been spending liberally to provide the Church with a Standard History of Methodism. I issued first a History of General Methodism in three volumes..; second a particular History of the Methodist Episcopal Church in four volumes - the fourth volume just out. These works haver received the strongest indorsements not only by Methodists, but other authorities on both sides of the Atlantic. They meet a great want of the Church, and a demand of the general religious public. The author employed by the Concern to prepare them - Dr. Abel Stevens - has devoted his utmost power to them, and has, by thorough research, added more than one third to the data of our history, as given by preceding writers. These works are now a staple part of the property of the Church's own Publishing House; they have cot it much, and will yield much to its interest if properly patronized. There are many of our people, however, who cannot spare the means for works as large as these. It has been our design from the beginning, therefore, to present them in cheaper form, that the whole Church may be supplied with them..That abridgment is presented in the present volume, by the author, with additions, bringing the narrative down to the Centenary of the Church, with full accounts of the results of the hundred years of its history, and life-like sketches of its representative men.."

Straughn, James H.
Inside Methodist Union
Publisher: The Methodist Publishing House, 1958 Nashville, TN.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover Signed by Author(s) Signed by the author on front endpaper! James Straughn is a bishop of The Methodist Church. "The following narrative is a realistic story of Methodist unification as I know it. It is not a history of Methodism, nor is it the final story of unification. There were three churches in the movement, and to have the full record we need it told from the viewpoint of each. It is inevitable that a writer will be influenced by his own background and convictions. Later on, some historian will take the three viewpoints and bring to balance the history of Methodist union..This writing attempts to accent the contribution made by the Methodist Protestant Church without the least depreciation of the larger contribution of the other two churches and is given without apology. It is hoped nothing in it will seem argumentative or combative. There is no desire to open old wounds. But to understand Methodist union and the problems incident to it, one must know factually what 'disunioned' the church. We are too far away now from origins for over sensitivity.." 192 pages.

But though I have had to curtail it by three-quarters I have tried to retain the atmosphere of tremendous activity which is one of its most remarkable features. Mr. Birrell, in his 'Appreciation', has focused in a very striking way the interest, actuality, and charm of Wesley's Journal, and all I have had to do was to select those portions which best illustrate them.." xxxii + 512 pages. Book is in FAIR condition; more than expected wear, but still intact and better than a reading copy. No dust jacket.

Wesley, John, 1703-1791. Baker, Frank, editor.
The Works of John Wesley. Volume 25. Letters I, 1721-1739. Edited by Frank Baker.
Publisher: Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1980. The Oxford Edition of the Works Volume 25.
763 p.; 22 cm. "This edition of the works of John Wesley reflects the quickened interest in the heritage of Christian thought that has characterized both ecumenical churchmanship and dominant theological perspectives during the last half-century. A fully critical presentation of Wesley's writings had long been a desideratum in order to furnish documentary sources illustrating his contribution to both catholic and evangelical Christianity." "Although many of the letters of John Wesley are of value as literature, especially as crisp statements of his views or desires..., their major importance is as a revelation of him as a man, and of the people and events of his day, especially those linked with the Methodist movement. They furnish us, in fact, with a portrait through seventy years both more revealing in detail and fuller in coverage than any other source." Library stamps on edges, number on rear flyleaf, but the book was never accessioned or used; VG. Stock#22105.

A New Life of Summerfield
Publisher: J. B. Lippincott & Co. , 1857 Philadelphia, PA.
Book. Book condition: Fair. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall This is a detailed biography of John Summerfield, a Methodist minister from Ireland. "..In this work the writer has felt anxious to bring into stronger relief, if possible, the religious and ministerial character of Mr. Summerfield. It is the piety of this devoted man of God - his religious experience - to which he wishes to givae prominence, it is his position and example as a Christian minister on which he mostly insists. If he has been so happy as to present these aspects of his character and life in a clearer and more impressive point of view, this work will not have been wholly in vain.." 256 pages. Book is in FAIR condition; significant wear to cover, with damage to spine. Lower covering of spine is missing. Binding is still GOOD; text pages have foxing but are otherwise clean. No dust jacket.

The Garden of American Methodism: The Delmarva Peninsula, 1769-1820
Publisher: Scholarly Resources Inc., 1984 Wilmington, DE.
Book. Book condition: Very Good. Good to Very Good. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall "..One reminder of the region's past is the more than five hundred Methodist churches which dot the countryside and mark the skylines of Delmarva's towns and hamlets. The astonishing number of Methodist churches not only indicates the historical importance of Methodism to the Peninsula but, conversely, reminds us of the significance of the Peninsula to the early development of American Methodism. Indeed, two centuries ago approximately one out of three American Methodists lived on the Delmarva Peninsula. Moreover, the Peninsula then hosted the purest form of John Wesley's beliefs to be found anywhere in America. Labeled 'old Methodism' Wesley's principles were challenged by outspoken Methodists from other regions of the United States who wished to alter the Wesleyan nature of American Methodism. But the strong support for 'old Methodism' provided by the Delmarva Peninsula proved crucial in preserving much of the Wesleyan heritage. But the attempt to preserve the Wesleyan tradition is only one small part of this study of Peninsula Methodism, which brings to life the struggles of a particular group of early Americans to provide spiritual meaning and a special sense of dignity to lives marked by poverty, hardship, and early death." Illustrated. xiv + 225 pages with index. Book is in VERY GOOD condition; a very nice, clean copy. Dust jacket has minor edgewear; thus, GOOD to VERY GOOD condition.

A History of Wesley U. M. Church, Georgetown (DE), 1779-1978
Publisher: The Countian Press, 1978 Georgetown, DE.
Book. Book condition: Good to Very Good. No Jacket. Hardcover Signed by Author(s) 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall SIGNED by author on title page! This is a LIMITED EDITION, denoted by the handwritten notation at the bottom of the title page: "76 of 200". Wesley United Methodist Church, located in Georgetown, Delaware, was founded in 1779. It is still active today. "There are significant problems encountered in writing local church histories. Usually, the local church commissions the history and a member of the congregation writes it. Objectivity is not attempted and the resulting history is usually a sentimental listing of ministers, lay leaders, building renovations and some 'interesting' anecdotes. Critical statements are never made nor are important questions asked. With this caveat in mind, I have attempted to produce a history of Wesley United Methodist Church that doesn't fit into the traditional church history mold..The Appendix contains a listing of some of the most important leadership positions and the people who filled them in recent years." Illustrated. v + 50 pages with index. Book is in GOOD to VERY GOOD condition. No dust jacket.

Successful Evangelism, or, Life and Labors of Rev. E. A. Fergerson
Publisher: The Glory Publishing Company, 1912 Malden, MA.
Book. Book condition: Fair to Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall Book is undated, but appeared shortly after Rev. Fergerson's death in 1912. Fergerson was a noted Methodist minister and evangelist of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "This book was born in my mind between midnight and day-break, after we buried our dear Bro. Fergerson. It contains a few of our thoughts concerning him and his work among us as a man, as a father, as husband, as a Christian gentleman, as a preacher, and as a successful soul winner. I am indebted to the evangelists who have so kindly and willingly donated articles which you may find in this book. May it glorify God and help all who read its pages and help the family left behind, is the prayer of the compiler, W. B. Yeats." 233 pages. Book is in FAIR to GOOD condition. It has a bit more wear than we like to see: rubbing and aging to cover; binding still good; text pages clean. No dust jacket.
