William Nast: Patriarch of German Methodism is a biographical work written by Carl Wittke. The book chronicles the life and legacy of William Nast, a prominent figure in the early history of the Methodist Church in America. Nast was born in Germany in 1807 and immigrated to the United States in 1836. He quickly became involved in the Methodist Church, and his leadership and organizational skills helped to establish the church in the German-speaking communities of the Midwest. Nast was also a prolific writer, and his publications helped to spread the message of the Methodist Church throughout the country. The book explores Nast's personal life, his role in the church, and his impact on the German-American community.
