Publisher Description In Gods Empire, Hilary M. Carey charts Britains nineteenth-century transformation from Protestant nation to free Christian empire through the history of the colonial missionary movement.

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.
