Author and public intellectual Orestes Augustus Brownson wrote this lively commentary on the history of Christianity as the religion became more established in the United States. The rapid establishment of new churches and congregations upon the frontier was a feature of the westward expansion in North America during the 19th century. Writing in 1836, Brownson offers a vivid history of the religion in the context of its establishment in the USA, his views upon its beliefs and core philosophies, and whether the church of his day accurately reflects the original teachings of Jesus Christ. Written as a narrative from a perspective of a man in search of spiritual fulfillment, New Views of Christianity sees Brownson draw contrasts and distinctions between different denominations and groups who term themselves Christian. He goes on to identify several important areas where religion has historically been influential - education in particular is highlighted as being of great importance.
