From Marsden’s perspective, liberal Protestantism eased the transition from the seemingly innocent methodological perspective to the more insidious ideologi- cal variety that prevented religious themes from entering the university “market- place of ideas.” Julie Reuben, while not discounting Marsden’s argument, does complicate his perspective by looking more specifically at how religion was conceived in relation to the search for truth at major universities in this era.

London : 21 Paternoster Square Edinburgh : 100 Princes Street TO HIS BELOVED REBECCA PREFACE is with no little hesitation that I let this inade- ITquate biography of Bishop McCabe go to the pub- lic. Yielding to the request made by friends, whose kind partiality may have obscured their judg- ment as to my fitness for such a task, I undertook a work the demands and difficulties of which soon embarrassed me. Bishop McCabe! Who of us did not know, or think we knew, this unique and glori- ous man? But he has been growing on us since he passed from our company and we have been study- ing anew his great life-work. We begin to see how large he was by the vacancy which his death has made in the ranks of our foremost leaders.

    Personal Narrative of a Tour Through a Part of the United States and Canada

    Library of Congress Personal narrative of a tour through a part of the United States and Canada Painted by W. Gush. Engd. by F.E. Jones. REV. JAMES DIXON D.D. President of the Conference PERSONAL NARRATIVE OF A TOUR THROUGH A PART OF THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA: WITH NOTICES OF THE HISTORY AND INSTITUTIONS OF METHODISM IN AMERICA. BY JAMES DIXON, D. D. LC LIBRARY OF CONGRESS CITY OF WASHINGTON NEW-YORK: PUBLISHED BY LANE & SCOTT, 200 Mulberry-street. JOSEPH LONGKING, PRINTER. 1849. F.S R. E 166 II 6 4 ADVERTISEMENT TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. It has not been thought necessary, in reprinting this work, to retain all of Dr. Dixon's quotations from American authorities, in his sketch of the History and Institutions of American Methodism. These can be found much more fully set forth in works easily accessible in this country. Part V. of Dr. Dixon's work, relating to the “Measures adopted by the Methodist Episcopal Church on the Subject of Slavery,” has been entirely omitted. It consists almost wholly of American documents. Personal narrative of a tour through a part of the United States and Canada http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbtn.02988 Library of Congress A few errors, in the use of names, dates, &c., have been silently corrected. Others, of less importance, have been suffered to remain. As a whole, it is only remarkable that Dr. Dixon should, in so short a time, have acquired so just and accurate a knowledge of the topography and geography of the country, as well as of the character and habits of our people.
