About this product

Product Information

Publicly humiliated by the Scopes "monkey trial" of 1925, fundamentalism in America seemed extinct by the end of the 1920s--and then all but invisible to the mainstream until evangelists like Billy Graham gave new life to the movement in the popular revivals of the 1940s and '50s. Here, Joel A. Carpenter illuminates these hidden years in the fundamentalist movement's history, and in doing so provides answers to the riddle of its survival. Blending painstaking research, telling anecdotes, and astute analysis, Carpenter brings this era into focus for the first time ever. He shows that, contrary to the popular opinion of the day, fundamentalism was alive and well in America in the late 1920s, and used its isolation over the next 20 years to build new strength from within. Taking a reasoned, objective approach to a topic frequently reduced to caricature, Revive Us Again gives us a fresh look at the continuing influence of American fundamentalism--an influence still evident in today's newspapers and cable TV newscasts.

"Indispensable....Whether he is sketching some of the dominant figures ofthe fundamentalist movement, exploring the fruitful tension between the need tobe separated from the world and the imperative to evangelize, or recounting theamazing saga of fundamentalism via radio...Carpenter is comprehensive withoutever becoming pedantic."--Christianity Today, "Carpenter has successfully combined institutional, intellectual, and cultural history to write the definitive account of the 'lost years' of American fundamentalism."--Los Angeles Times Book Review, "A lucid, in-depth account of the creation of an institutionalcounter-culture for fundamentalism between the 1920s...and the rise of BillyGraham in the 1950s."--Times Literary Supplement, "Carpenter's book is a carefully researched study of why and howfundamentalist Christians have been able to prove earlier notices of theirmovement's demise to have been greatly exaggerated."--The Chicago Tribune, "This is crucial book for understanding how fundamentalism built a vitalcounter-culture during the 1930s and 1940s. Their efforts provided the base forthe emergence of the broader evangelicalism of the Billy Graham era and forlater fundamentalism. Carpernter is the leading authority on this subject anddoes a superb job in depicting it."--George Marsden, Francis A. McAnaneyProfessor of History, University of Notre Dame, and author ofThe Outrageous Ideaof Christian Scholarship, "Carpenter's book is one of the best we have on fundamentalism."-- Books & Culture "Indispensable.... Carpenter is comprehensive without ever becoming pedantic."-- Christianity Today "A lucid, in-depth account. "-- Times Literary Supplement, "This is an important book, bristling with insights. ...Carpenter's book is one of the best we have on fundamentalism. He reminds us that, while it is tempting to vilify fundamentalists, they represent a genuine religious tradition whose staying power and influence demand seriousattention."--Bruce Hindamarsh, Books and Culture, "Carpenter's book is one of the best we have on fundamentalism."--Books & Culture "Indispensable....

"--Times Literary Supplement, "Carpenter's portrait of the lost years of American fundamentalism is compelling religious and cultural history."--Publisher's Weekly, "Carpenter's work easily ranks as the premier analysis of American Fundamentalism from the 1920s to the rise of Billy Graham in the 1950s. He weaves theological, cultural, and social strands into a mosaic that is as sweeping in its breadth as it is beautiful in its telling. Sit back and watcha master artist at work."--Grant Wacker, The Divinity School, Duke University, "Indispensable....Whether he is sketching some of the dominant figures of the fundamentalist movement, exploring the fruitful tension between the need to be separated from the world and the imperative to evangelize, or recounting the amazing saga of fundamentalism via radio...Carpenter iscomprehensive without ever becoming pedantic."--John Wilson, Christianity Today, "Carpenter's book is a carefully researched study of why and how fundamentalist Christians have been able to prove earlier notices of their movement's demise to have been greatly exaggerated."--The Chicago Tribune, "An important and much valued work which presents its claims in clear and lucid style."--Grayson Carter, Methodist College "An excellent treatment of a neglected area of American Christian history. This is a 'must read' for all historians in the field."--Lawrence Rast, Concordia TheologicalSeminary "This is crucial book for understanding how fundamentalism built a vital counter-culture during the 1930s and 1940s.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
