Selina, Countess of Huntingdon

by Alan Harding

Few men, and still fewer women, have founded their own church. Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, did just that. By the time she died, aged 83, in 1791, her 'Connexion' had 60 congregations - some of which exist to this day - and its own theological training college. Harding's succinct, accessible biography charts the life of this remarkable woman against the background of the 18th century church and society, and assesses her distinctive contribution to the Evangelical movement.

Such dry history. Interesting but couldn't bring myself to read word for word. I 'perused' this one. It actually was written by Faith Cook... she used a lot of Alan Harding's references.
