📖 The Scoop

From the colonial era until well into the 20th century, the combination of faith and the income from tobacco built and sustained the Anglican parishes of Maryland. This book examines the history of St. Thomas' Parish in Prince George's County--a parish whose roots reach back to one of the earliest congregations in the colony. The text covers not only the events and people at the local parish level but also gives insight into the necessary and practical business of managing a parish: supporting a rector, maintaining church buildings, and nurturing the growth of congregations.Calvert, Claggett, Bowie, Eversfield--names woven throughout Maryland history and the history of St. Thomas' Parish appear throughout Faith & Tobacco. Letters, diaries, journals, and personal papers of priests and parishioners, some recently discovered, offer a fascinating view of the life of this parish and its people.
