The Presbyterian Controversy: Fundamentalists, Modernists, and Moderates (Religion in America)
"A thorough and accessible history of the topic."--Louisville Presbyterian Seminary"Longfield's excellent chronicle focuses on six major Presbyterian participants....This is an enormously illuminating book about major Presbyterian figures who had counterparts in other churches also torn by conflict."--Theological Studies"An outstanding history of the early 20th century conflict within the Presbyterian church.  The work should be digested not only by historians of American religion, but by pastors and lay people with a genuine concern for the future of the Protestant mainline establishment."--Trinity Journal"A book long needed by historians of American religion....An important contribution."--Journal of Religion"Represents superb scholarship.  His study not only clarifies the history of the conflict...but also contributes to an understanding of conflicts that have divided many American Protestant denominations since that time."--Choice
