Between the Times: The Travail of the Protestant Establishment in America, 1900-1960 (Cambridge Studies in Religion and American Public Life)
"It should be clear from my remarks that I consider this a pioneering and already landmark achievement."   Martin E. Marty, Christian Century"Because of its insightful, systematic, and in-depth treatment, this book adds considerably to one's understanding of the American Protestant establishment during the period 1900-60..."   Choice"William Hutchison and his collaborators offer a rich and stimulating series of essays...Between the Times not only defines an era; it also explores a central transformation in twentieth-century American culture."   John F. Wilson, Princeton University"The central themes which emerge are critical to understanding what happened to American mainstream Protestant churches in the twentieth century and their future...The essays offer a fascinating kaleidoscope of perspectives on aspects of this Protestant establishment and its `travail' in maintaining authority...Facile generalizations about the importance of the 1960s will have to be modified by these thoughful reassessments of the Protestant establishment at its zenith."
