From its earliest days, the United States has provided fertile
ground for reform movements to flourish. In this volume, twelve
eminent historians assess religious and secular reform in America
from the eighteenth century to the present day.
The essays offer a mix of general overviews and specific case
studies, addressing such topics as radical religion in New England,
leisure in antebellum America, Sabbatarianism, the Women's
Christian Temperance Union, and Evangelicalism, social reform, and
the U.S. welfare state.
Suitable for students, the essays, each based on original
research, will also be of interest to researchers and academics
working in this area, as well as to all those with an interest in
the history of religious and secular reform in America.
