Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "The Meeting House of the First Baptist Church in Providence; A History of the Fabric" is a meticulous architectural and historical examination of one of the most iconic religious landmarks in the United States. Written by the distinguished architectural historian Norman Morrison Isham, this work provides an in-depth look at the physical evolution and structural significance of the meeting house in Providence, Rhode Island.As the home of the first Baptist congregation in America, founded by Roger Williams, the building is a testament to both religious conviction and early American craftsmanship. Isham explores the design of the 1775 structure, famously influenced by the designs of James Gibbs, and details the technical aspects of its construction and subsequent preservation. The narrative covers the various phases of the building's history, highlighting its dual role as a place of worship and a site for significant civic events, including the commencements of Brown University.This volume serves as a vital record for scholars of ecclesiastical architecture, New England history, and the development of the American Colonial style.
