"Barry Hankins has assembled an accessible, well-organized volume of primary documents that willhelp the student of American religion interpret the core tenets of American fundamentalist Christianity." (Louisiana History) "A great service for all of us who teach undergraduate and graduate courses in U.S. religious history. This fine historian has provided us with a representative collection of primary texts, in the process allowing our students the opportunity to encounter the diversity of evangelicals and evangelical ideas in twentieth-century America." - William Vance Trollinger,author of God's Empire: William Bell Riley and Midwestern Fundamentalism "Scholars, students and the general reading public have long needed a book like this one. Its judicious selections, helpful introductions, and intelligent arrangement open up a history that has been too often obscured by partisanship and sloppy reporting." - Mark Noll,University of Notre Dame
