"A beautifully written and artfully constructed book that draws
intriguing conclusions about the nature of evangelical
Protestantism."—Mark Noll, University of Notre Dame
*Mark Noll*
“This book charts new territory by close examination of a series of
case studies of people previously well-known but not previously
compared. Hempton succeeds wonderfully well in producing compelling
mini-biographies.”—Thomas Kidd, author of The Great Awakening: The
Roots of Evangelical Christianity in Colonial America
*Thomas Kidd*
“Hempton tells these stories with excellent skill, insight, and
fair-mindedness. These accounts of loss of faith of prominent
figures illuminate not only their personal struggles but also some
fascinating relationships between evangelicalism and mainstream
public culture, especially in Great Britain and the United
States.”—George Marsden, author of Fundamentalism and American
Culture
*George Marsden*
