Ellen Whites writings are important, but they are only part of the
story. The other part is the social and intellectual context in which
she wrote. What was her world like? What problems did it face? What
ideas were in vogue? What religious movements did she interact with?
How did her ideas relate to the sentiments of other reformers of her
day?These and other questions stand at the heart of George R. Knights
third volume in his series on Ellen White. The genius of Ellen Whites
World is that it combines photographs with verbal descriptions to make
Ellen Whites world come alive for the modern reader.
