James White: Innovator and Overcomer

---

In this comprehensive biography, Gerald Wheeler presents the life of James Springer White, one of the principal pioneers of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. From his humble roots in Maine to his role in founding and organizing the Adventist movement, White’s story is one of innovation, contradiction, fervor, and achievement. Wheeler explores how White embraced new technologies and institutions, founded periodicals and publishing houses, participated in organizing the church, and advanced its mission globally. At the same time, the book does not shy away from his personal challenges, including financial scrutiny, health struggles, and leadership conflicts. This balanced portrayal offers readers insight into how White’s faith and tenacity helped shape a movement, and how his legacy continues to influence the Adventist Church today.
