History and stuff

The history of the 19th century Bible Student movement, with occasional more recent developments among those who stayed with the Watch Tower Society. A place for historians who love this subject. Not a place for polemics or for debating beliefs; simply history written as neutrally as possible. Enjoy! Some reprinted pieces first appeared on: truthhistory.blogspot.com
