The Christian and Missionary Alliance's own centennial history, published by its own press, covering A. B. Simpson's 1887 founding of the twin societies that became the C&MA and the denomination's 1974 adoption of formal denominational status. As the body's own account it is a custodian source; used here for dates and events the C&MA itself records rather than for any claim the atlas cannot check elsewhere.
