In Inherit the Holy Mountain, historian Mark Stoll introduces us to
the religious roots of the American environmental movement.
Religion, he shows, provided environmentalists both with
deeply-embedded moral and cultural ways of viewing the world and
with content, direction, and tone for the causes they espoused.
Stoll discovers that specific denominational origins corresponded
with characteristic sets of ideas about nature and the environment
as well as distinctive aesthetic reactions to nature, as can be
seen in key works of art analyzed throughout the book. Stoll also
provides insight into the possible future of environmentalism in
the United States, concluding with an examination of the current
religious scene and what it portends for the future. By debunking
the supposed divide between religion and American environmentalism,
Inherit the Holy Mountain opens up a fundamentally new narrative in
environmental studies.
