"American Methodist Worship is the most comprehensive history of
worship among John Wesley's various American spiritual descendents
that has ever been written. It will be a foundational book for
anyone who wishes to understand how American Methodists have
worshipped."-Sacramental Life
"This groundbreaking study will help to reshape the way that we
think about early American Methodist worship and how it connects to
more recent trends."-- The Journal of Religion
"Karen Westerfield Tucker's exhaustive examination of the history
of American Methodist worship may indeed launch a new genre in
liturgical historiography: denominational liturgical histories. The
genius of this contribution is its comprehensiveness in examining
for the first time the worship life of an American ecclesiological
tradition."--Doxology
