This is a detailed picture of the experiences of Mary Baker Eddy as the Christian Science movement developed in New England in the mid to late 1800s. The book is realistic about the setting of the times and many hardships and trials the movement went through in its early years. The author was a writer for the Christian Science Monitor and is sympathetic toward Mrs. Eddy while more critical of key people around her.
