Title: Catholics, slaveholders, and the dilemma of American evangelicalism, 1835-1860
Description: W. Jason Wallace examines sermons, books, newspaper articles, and private correspondence of members of three antebellum groups--northern evangelicals, southern evangelicals, and Catholics--and argues that the divisions among them stemmed, at least in part, from disagreements over the role that religious convictions played in a free society. --from publisher descriptioin
