Christian fundamentalism in America emerged a century ago, the
faith of generations of immigrants who had experienced war and
revolution, removal and upheaval. The Scots-Irish who had settled
the South inherited both an evangelical legacy of abolitionism and
social reform on the one hand, and complicity in human slavery and
racial oppression on the other. This book brings the story of
fundamentalism to life through the generations of the Rice
family--immigrants, soldiers, farmers, slaveowners, refugees, and
preachers. This is a work of history, memoir, and personal
testimony about the changing shape of a faith that seeks to
transform the world. Foreword by Parker J. Palmer
