"The Methodist Episcopal Church, South, or Methodist Episcopal Church South (MEC, S) , was the Methodist denomination resulting from the 19th-century split over the issue of slavery in the Methodist Episcopal Church (MEC). Disagreement on this issue had been increasing in strength for decades between churches of the North and South; in 1844 it resulted in a schism at the General Conference of the MEC held in Louisville, Kentucky. This body maintained its own polity for nearly 100 years. It did not reunite with the elder Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Protestant Church (earlier separated from Methodist Episcopals in 1828) until 1939, then formed the Methodist Church. The national denomination merged in 1968 with the Evangelical United Brethren Church, to form the United Methodist Church, now one of the largest and most widely spread religious denominations in America."

Expected delivery 1/31-2/6. Received on 2/1. Outstanding! I have never received a better packed book. Outstanding! Described as 'Very Fine'; to my untrained eye the book is closer to Mint, than Very Fine. I certainly received at least what I paid for if not more. I would not hesitate to do business this seller again and I would recommend, without question, this seller to any prospective buyer.
