Description:

This is the first book since 1960 to chronicle the history of the Augustana Lutheran Church, which was founded in 1860 primarily by Swedish immigrants. The Augustana Lutheran Church was the largest organization ever founded by Swedish Americans, and it gave birth to a large number of literary works, colleges, and hospitals, as well as a theological seminary.-publisher.
