description: William B. McClain has written a fascinating and insightful account of one segment of Methodism's complex history. The early circuit riders, abolitionists, and John Wesley himself are all here. Harry Hoosier, John Stewart, and Henry Evans are here. Dr. McClain gives a unique account of the struggles within United Methodism, the disastrous "uniting conference of 1939," and of the setbacks that forced a segregated faction to rise from its ashes.
