From its inception in the early 1900s, The United Church of Canada set out to become the national church of Canada. This book recounts and analyzes the history of the church of Canada’s largest Protestant denomination and its engagement with issues of social and private morality, evangelistic campaigns, and its response to the restructuring of religion in the 1960s. A chronological history is followed by chapters on the United Church’s worship, theology, understanding of ministry, relationships with the Canadian Jewish community, Israel, and Palestinians, changing mission goals in relation to First Nations peoples, and changing social imaginary. The result is an original, accessible, and engaging account of The United Church of Canada’s pilgrimage that will be useful for students, historians, and general readers. From this account there emerges a complex portrait of the United Church as a distinctly Canadian Protestant church shaped by both its Christian faith and its engagement with the changing society of which it is a part.

John Webster Grant's The Church in the Canadian Era was originally published in 1972. It remains a classic and important text on the history of the Canadian churches since Confederation. This updated edition has been expanded to include a chapter on recent history as well as a new bibliographical survey. Its approach is ecumenical, taking account not only of the whole range of Christian denominations but of sources in both national languages.

From Protest to Challenge rescues from obscurity the voices of protest in South Africa through the publication of rare documents housed in the collections of the Hoover Institution Library & Archives. These excerpts from political ephemera, radical newspapers, and other materials provide a documentary history of opposition groups in South Africa. They bear witness not only to a remarkable period in South African history but also to the vital need for the preservation of historical documents as an essential tool of scholarship. These materials are as relevant today as when they were first published, graphically demonstrating the South African struggle for peace, freedom, and equality. Volume 2 covers the years 1935 to 1952, a period framed by the All-African Convention, arranged in response to proposed legislation limiting the rights of native Africans, and the launch of the Defiance Campaign protesting apartheid laws.
