Honestly I was a little surprised myself at how much I enjoyed this work and how much I though of it. The reason, all this Lost Cause stuff is pretty well-worn territory . . . Much to my happy surprise, it makes for wonderful reading and the scholarship is excellent. --Paul Harvey, author of Through the Storm, Through the Night: A History of African American Christianity Pulpits of the Lost Cause is expertly written, deeply researched, and an important contribution to the history of religion in the Civil War Era. It is also rich on the history of theology and denominational particulars, which is especially helpful in understanding how various distinctive positions could exist with the culture of Confederate apologia. --Luke E. Harlow, author of Religion, Race, and the Making of Confederate Kentucky, 1830-1880
