Thoroughly Researched
Dr. Fetters is truly a scholar and a gentleman. This Christian researcher has put together a well documented history of the first demonination to be founded in the United States, the United Brethern in Christ. In so doing he has filled a niche that had previously been void. He is to be commended for successfully meeting this challenge.

The author's storytelling skills are so captivating that he takes the reader back to the U.B. theology that preceded the activities that later took place in the U.S. He's good at establishing context and developing chronology. This is an informative book. ... Read more
