| Description: |
This volume provides a revisionist interpretation of the King's church as an instrument of imperial policy and an examination of the the civil and ecclesiastical agencies and leaders who implemented the policies for the development and supervision of the church in the American colonies. |
| Synopsis: |
The experience of the King's church in Early America was shaped by the unfolding imperial policies of the English government after 1675. London-based civil and ecclesiastical officials supervised the extension and development of the church overseas. The recruitment, appointment and financial support of the ministers was guided by London officials. Transplanted to the New World without the traditional hierarchical structure of the church - no bishop served in the colonies during the colonial period - at the time of the American Revolution it was neither an English-American, or American-English church, yet modified in a distinctive manner. |
