The Old Faith in a New Nation uses hundreds of sources to show that between the Revolution and the Civil War, American Protestants were deeply interested in the meaning of the Christian past. Even while claiming to rely on "the Bible alone," evangelicals turned to Christian history to navigate pressing questions about church-state relations, Catholic immigration, women's rights and roles, slavery, and more.
