Provenance

This collection was purchased by the James White Library in the Spring of 1992 from Calvin Edwards. Edwards was a student in Australia when the theological controversy, sketched in this collection, began in the 1970s. He moved to Andrews University in about 1978 or 1979 to earn a graduate degree from the Theological Seminary. In the early 1980s Edwards was associated with Desmond Ford and his organization, Good News Unlimited. Through his interest and participation in these discussions he collected the documents which constitute this collection.
