Content Description

The B. O. Engen Collection consists of three boxes containing some clippings, correspondence on reduction of armament, and sermons. Mostly there are Ellen G. White statements and tracks and pamphlets. Many boxes of books also came with the collection. The non-Adventist books were separated and processed by the James White Library’s Seminary Collection. The remaining books, about half of the total, were processed by the Center for Adventist Research. The books were largely Adventist titles from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. No bibliography was compiled due to the nature of the collection and the method used to separate it early.
