Publisher's Description

"...a lively story of the Episcopal tradition"
—E. Brooks Holifield


A thorough, carefully researched history that sets church events against the background of social changes. Completely revised and updated, this third revised edition covers the history of the Episcopal Church up to the summer of 2014 and includes a closing section on the important work of the Task Force for Reimagining the Episcopal Church (TREC), which will be reporting to the 2015 General Convention.

For church historians, seminarians, and those who have interest in the past, present, and future developments within the Episcopal and broader religious landscape.

Author Bio

Robert W. Prichard, has been teaching liturgy at Virginia Theological Seminary since 1979. While his primary publications have been in church history, he has contributed occasional articles to journals and collections about the liturgy. Prichard has been a General Convention deputy since 2006 and has twice served on the General Convention's Joint Committee on Liturgy and Music. At the convention of 2015, he served as one of the two secretaries of that body.

Editorial Reviews

"Prichard tells a lively story of the Episcopal tradition in America. He brings historical perspective to current debates, underlines the salutary force of creative leadership, and illumines the interplay between theological reflection, liturgical practice, and social change. This is a lucid and brisk account that brings the reader into the inner life of a denomination that has proven to be remarkably resilient. Prichard is both realistic about the challenges and hopeful about the possibilities. I found it engaging and instructive."
—E. Brooks Holifield, Charles Howard Candler Professor, Emeritus, Emory University
