E. DENOMINATIONAL LITERATURE
1. BAPTIST
Asplund, John. The Annual Register of the Baptist Denomination in North America ... to Nov. 1,1790; containing an account of the Churches and their Const.i.tutions, Ministers, Members, a.s.sociations, their Plan and Sentiments, Rule and Order, Proceedings and Correspondence. Worcester, 1791-94.
Backus, Isaac. A History of New England with Particular Reference to the Denomination of Christians called Baptists. Newton, Ma.s.s., 1871. 2 vols.
This edition by D. Weston includes Isaac Backus' prefaces to vol. i, finished 1777; vol. ii, 1784; and vol iii, 1796.
This contemporary writer is regarded as an authority, as much of his work was founded upon the court, town, and church records and upon the minutes of ecclesiastical councils. He searched diligently the records of Plymouth, Taunton, Boston, Ess.e.x, Providence, Newport, Hartford and New Haven. The book has a chronological record of the Connecticut churches. It is very discursive.
Benedict, David. A General History of the Baptist Denomination in America and other parts of the world. Boston, 1813.
This contains a more complete list of the a.s.sociations and churches than that given by Backus. There is a valuable chapter, "Baptist Communities who differ from the main body of the denomination and who are also distinguished by some peculiarities of their own."
Burrage, Henry S. A History of the Baptists in New England. Philadelphia, 1894.
Particularly useful in tracing the progress of the denomination in the different states, and in its contribution to the history of religious liberty.
Cathcart, William (Editor). The Baptist Encyclopedia: A Dictionary of the Doctrines ... of the Baptist Denomination in all Lands. Philadelphia, 1883. 2 vols.
Curtis, Thomas F. The Progress of Baptist Principles in the Last Hundred Years. Boston, 1856.
Denison, Frederic. Notes of the Baptists and their Principles in Norwich. Norwich, 1859.
