In God's Empire, Hilary M. Carey charts Britain's
nineteenth-century transformation from Protestant nation to free
Christian empire through the history of the colonial missionary
movement. This wide-ranging reassessment of the religious character
of the second British empire provides a clear account of the
promotional strategies of the major churches and church parties
which worked to plant settler Christianity in British domains.
Based on extensive use of original archival and rare published
sources, the author explores major debates such as the relationship
between religion and colonization, church-state relations, Irish
Catholics in the empire, the impact of the Scottish Disruption on
colonial Presbyterianism, competition between Evangelicals and
other Anglicans in the colonies, and between British and American
strands of Methodism in British North America.
