"This book is a thoroughly researched and well presented history of the Fundamentalist movement and its place in American culture. In this edition, Marsden added another chapter which discusses how the movement and the terminology have changed since he first wrote the work in 1980. While Marsden is certainly sympathetic to the movement, he writes from a adequately disconnected vantage point, that takes note of the weaknesses as well as the strengths that this movement has exemplified. Over-all, this book is probably the best resource currently available on the history of Fundamentalism."
"Gives a good background to understand today's militant fundamentalist's. Special attention is given to social, political, intellectual and American Protestant movements. The so called war and has been going on for a long time to root out liberals from Protestant seminaries, churches and colleges. These folks are anti science, anti evolution and intolerant of any scriptural belief outside what they say you must believe to be a Christian. It's pretty black and white in their thinking. They really don't like Roman Catholics, Mormons and other religions. The book doesn't touch on it for today but you can add immigrants and homosexuals of things to be hated today. Liberals remain in their hatred and a liberal is anyone who doesn't believe like them, especially in regards to alcohol, sex, Sunday observance, church attendance, gambling, tobacco, etc."
"This insightful and academic book traces the history of fundamentalism from its reconstruction roots through the prohibition era, and even to its present day incarnations."
