Literary Activity of the German Baptist Brethren in the Eighteenth Century

S. Flory John

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The closing years of the nineteenth and the opening of the twentieth centuries witnessed the birth of a deep and widespread interest in the early history of the Germans who came to Pennsylvania in the first days of that great Commonwealth. The subject has grown in interest, as the records of the past brought to light the doings of these sturdy, conscientious, pious sons of the Fatherland, until today every new phase of the subject is anxiously waited for and warmly welcomed by all who take an interest in our beginnings in our country. Pennsylvania Dutch, once used as a term of ridicule, has become a topic of the most absorbing interest to all who are inclined to look into the history of the past.
