Synopsis

German Religious Life in Colonial Times is a historical account of the religious practices and beliefs of German settlers in colonial America. Written by Lucy F. Bittinger, the book provides a detailed analysis of the various religious denominations that emerged among German immigrants during the 18th and 19th centuries, including Lutherans, Reformed, Moravians, and Mennonites. Bittinger explores the reasons why German immigrants chose to settle in America, their struggles to maintain their religious traditions in a new and unfamiliar land, and the ways in which their religious beliefs influenced their daily lives. She also examines the role of religion in shaping the social, cultural, and political landscape of colonial America, and how German religious communities interacted with other groups, such as Native Americans and African slaves. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, including diaries, letters, and church records, German Religious Life in Colonial Times offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and diverse religious heritage of German immigrants in America. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of religion, immigration, and colonial America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
