The Metaphysical Confederacy: James Henley Thornwell and the Synthesis of Southern Values
"James O. Farmer's intellectual biography of James Henley Thornwell...is a major constribution to southern--indeed, to American--intellectual and religious history." --Ralph E. Luker, author of The Social Gospel in Black and White"This is a book to be read and pondered for insights into the enduring dilemma of race, religion, and politics in American life." --John M. Mulder, president, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
