**A foundational pillar of Baptist successionism, this enduring historical treatise charts an unbroken lineage of dissenting faith from antiquity to the modern era.**

First published in 1931, *The Trail of Blood* presents Texas pastor and historian J. M. Carroll’s passionate defense of Landmark Baptist ecclesiology. Originally delivered as a series of lectures, the work argues that the true church established by Jesus Christ never vanished into apostasy, nor did it originate in the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation. Instead, Carroll contends that authentic Christian belief survived through a resilient succession of independent, persecuted assemblies spanning nearly two millennia.
