"The quest for the restoration of the church's pristine purity is one of the most powerful forces in American Protestantism, yet one of the most neglected by scholars of American religious history. This volume is ground-breaking in its attempt to discuss the pervasiveness of this concept in the American religious landscape... The list of contributors to this volume reads like a Who's Who of American religious historiography." -- W. Glenn Jonas, Journal of the American Academy of Religion
