This volume focuses on Protestantism, surveying (1) the \"Daughters of the Reformation\"-Lutherans and Calvinists, Unitarians and Anglicans, Methodists and Baptists-to distill the essence of Protestantism; (2) Protestant geographical and political expansion in Scandinavia and Germany, England and France, and eventually (in maximal form) in the United States; (3) Protestant missionary efforts, both in co-operation and conflict with those of the Catholic Church; and (4) the \"soul and spirit of Protestantism,\" its liturgy and spiritual forms, its social sensibilities, and its theologies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChrist prayed that his followers may be one.
