Strangers in Zion

"Telling the story of Protestant fundamentalist theological traditions and institutions in the American South and the emergence of patterns of fundamentalist conflict, William R. Glass cogently argues that fundamentalists - whether they were Southern born or Northern transplants - were "strangers in Zion." Fundamentalists during 1900-1950 had difficulty making a home for themselves in the region, yet they laid the foundation for a larger presence in the post-World War II years." "This story has been virtually ignored by historians of fundamentalism and historians of religion in the South. Glass has written a history that fills a significant gap in the historical literature on fundamentalism and on religion in the American South. As such, he lays the groundwork for understanding the South's contribution to the growth of the religious right in second half of the twentieth-century."--Jacket.
