Rice Haggard—the man who potentially has the claim to earliest leader in the Restoration Movement is almost completely forgotten. If not for him, Barton W. Stone and company might never have taken their stand. His cry for union on the basis of No name but Christian, no creed but the Bible came several years before Thomas and Alexander Campbell began to preach and teach the same thing. If not for his untimely death, Rice Haggard may have been a name familiar to all students of true church history. Yet he is forgotten by most. This volume is the most extensive work in existence on Rice Haggard, his life, and his impact. It compiles together Haggard's monumental work, An Address to the Different Religious Societies on the Sacred Import of the Christian Name , with Colby D. Hall's biography, Rice Haggard: The Frontier Evangelist Who Revived the Name Christian , and John W. Neth Jr.'s description of how the once-lost Haggard work was found nearly 150 years later.
