Beschreibung

Discover the roots of a spiritual revolution. The Origin And History Of Methodism In Wales And The Borders by David Young is a masterful exploration of how faith transformed a nation. Through vivid historical detail, Young traces the rise of the Methodist Church in 19th-century Wales and its borderlands, illuminating the powerful forces that shaped both community and conscience. This is not just a historical religious study; it is a window into the soul of Welsh religious heritage. With keen insight, Young examines the origins of Methodism and the broader currents of Christianity in Wales, revealing how religious movements of the 1800s stirred hearts and minds across the region. His work stands as a cornerstone for religious scholars and historians, as well as anyone drawn to the evolution of the Methodist Church and its enduring impact. The narrative brings to life the fervour, challenges, and triumphs that defined methodism in the 19th century, offering a compelling resource for academic religious research and those captivated by Welsh religious history. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This edition invites both the casual reader and the classic-literature collector to experience a defining chapter in the development of faith, community, and identity in 1800s Wales and the Borders.
