Main Article Content

Abstract

There is no perfect textbook. Some texts strive to be exhaustive while others lightly survey a subject.
No textbook can meet the needs of every student. The definitive textbook on Adventist Church history
since its publication in 1979 has been Light Bearers to the Remnant, the latest edition of which stretches
to nearly 700 pages. It is a valuable resource to the serious student, but is too lengthy and dense to make
it practical as a text for introductory-level college classes, especially in locations where English is not the
first language.
