A rich and revealing examination of the trials and tribulations of American evangelicalism in the 20th century. Marsden helps his readers understand the evangelical and fundamentalist roots that gave birth to Fuller Seminary, and he traces Fuller's role as a focal point in the struggle of some evangelicals -- to first reform, and then to break away from -- the limiting intellectual and cultural contours of fundamentalism. - Choice, on back cover.
