I am rather new to this branch of my personal history, and am finding myself confused and a llittle overwhelmed by the history of the Brethren Church. I need context to put my family in. Most of the referenced and recommended books seem to be out of print and unavailable to the general reader. Are there any recommendations of books in print now - probably published or reissued within the last ten years - that would give me a good overview. (Or soon to be published, if you are a writer or have an inside scoop.)

Try Masthof Press. They reprint old genealogy books, and their catalog has a Brethren section. That is where I got many of my genealogy books.
