Description

This book argues that while the interwar period is generally seen as a period of Evangelical withdrawal from American public life, Evangelical leaders of varying sub-groups remained acutely aware of foreign affairs, speaking on US foreign affairs to large groups of congregants and beyond. Contributing to the spread of themes that emerged during this era regarding concerns of anti-Semitism, skepticism of the League of Nations, and preoccupation on biblical prophecy seen in current events. Schwarzwalder analyzes the theological, sectarian, and political views of Evangelical leaders during this time.
