James Simms, Georgia state legislator, pastor and church officer, writes the centennial history of the First Byran African Baptist Church in Savannah, in an effort to claim the title of first African American Baptist Church in North America away from the First African Baptist Church of Savannah, Ga. Beneath the story of church quarrels is a historical record of the struggles associated with establishing, running and expanding a church for African Americans during the period from 1788 to 1888. The book reports on the Church's condition in 1888 and provides biographical sketches of its pastors.
