This book has won wide acceptance as a standard reference work in Baptist history. No Baptist pastor's bookshelf, no church or seminary library, is complete without it. Since the original publication in 1950, the book has seen several new editions, adding findings and interpretations of scholarship and events through the 1970's.
Editorial Reviews:
“This is an outstanding overview of not only the history of the denomination, but the development of the ‘Baptist Distinctives’ that set Baptists apart from other evangelical denominations.” —Warren Kelly
“Mr. Torbet has done an excellent job detailing the often misunderstood history of the Baptists. His comments are supported by numerous references and sources so that the serious student may research his conclusions on their own. This is an excellent book for anybody searching for a credible Baptist history book without the modern leanings toward ecumenicalism.” —Mr. and Mrs. Kelly
