In a brief, narrative survey, Balmer and Fitzmier trace the history of the Presbyterian tradition, from its roots in Europe to its manifestations in contemporary America. The six chapters cover the European origins of Presbyterianism; the growth of Presbyterianism in the Northern and Southern states during the nineteenth century; and the development of Presbyterianism in twentieth-century America. Concluding with a Chronology and Bibliographic Essay, this is an ideal text for courses in Church History, American Religious History, or American social and cultural history.
RANDALL BALMER is Associate Professor of Religion at Barnard College, Columbia University. He has published numerous articles in scholarly journals, and is the author of A Perfect Babel of Confusion: Dutch Religion and English Culture in the Middle Colonies (1989) and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory: A Journey into Evangelical Subculture in America
