Tracts and Pamphlets – Baptism

The SBHLA’s extensive Pamphlet Collection (over 10,200 items) focuses on the response of Baptists to theological and social questions, during the 19th and 20th centuries, but covers all aspects of Baptist writings. This presentation includes a selection of items mostly from the Library and Archives’ Pamphlet Collection, with a few tract and pamphlet items from the Book and Microfilm collections. Items are divided into subject categories and arranged alphabetically by title. Author name, publisher, and date of publication are indicated when known. SBHLA call numbers are included at the end of file titles. Most items are in English but selections in this presentation also include material in Spanish and Russian. The materials are any word searchable.
