Reviews

This book is obviously a labor of love. Erskine Clarke, who teaches American religious history at Columbia Theological Seminary, has researched extensively, if not exhaustively, the history of the Reformed churches of the South Carolina low country....Clarke s argument has broad implications for the understanding of southern culture and the role of religion in Southern history....Clarke s book will take an important place in the literature on Southern religion and culture. In the literature on regional religious history and denominational history, this work will be a landmark and a model for others to follow. --John M. Mulder, Louisville (KY) Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Theology Today

An exciting addition to American religious history. . . . Clarke appreciates that there was a vibrant human experience antedating Presbyterian denominationalism: the transplanted European traditions brought to America by colonial settlers and which mediated symbolically between individuals and the culture within which they lived. --Robert McCluer Calhoon, University of North Carolina-Greensboro
