This book explores the genesis and expansion of the Methodist movement in an area of Canada bordering the United States and the Great Lakes, a region then known as Upper Canada. The book begins by tracing the origins of Methodism in Great Britain and Ireland, and the factors that led to its rapid spread across the British Isles. The author focuses on the experiences of early Methodist preachers in Canada, describing the hardships they faced as they traveled through the wilderness, and the challenges they encountered in establishing a foothold. This account is illuminated by numerous primary sources, including journals, letters, and official church records. The book also sheds light on the role of Methodist missionaries in the growth of the movement, and their dedication to spreading the Gospel among both European settlers and Indigenous peoples. By examining the history of Methodism in Upper Canada, this book contributes to our understanding of the religious landscape of early Canada, and the role of religion in shaping the social and cultural development of the region. Through its detailed exploration, this book is poised to become a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the history of Methodism and the religious landscape of North America.
