Publisher's Synopsis

""A Church on Wheels: Or Ten Years on a Chapel Car"" is a memoir written by Charles Herbert Rust, first published in 1905. The book chronicles Rust's experiences as a missionary on a chapel car, a specially designed train car that served as a traveling church for rural communities in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Rust recounts his travels across the American Midwest, sharing stories of the people he met and the challenges he faced in bringing the gospel to remote areas. He also offers insights into the history and development of the chapel car movement, including the design and construction of the cars and the logistics of organizing services and outreach programs. The book provides a unique perspective on the history of American Christianity and the ways in which religious institutions adapted to the changing needs of their congregations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
