Description: This book has three purposes. "The first purpose is to promote and encourage research in Presbyterian history... The second purpose is to make these diverse files, diaries, sermons, minutes, letters, and other materials more intelligible to both the university and the Church. To accomplish this, the Guide includes a general introduction, a bibliography of Presbyterian Church in the United States reference works, and a complete name and subject index... The final purpose is to emphasize the continuing relevance and importance of these materials in the contemporary life of the church"--Pref.
