'A significant scholarly work. Its continuous assessment of different theories of social movement formation, its unique contentions concerning the mechanisms by which groups become politically mobilized, and its insightful comparative analysis make this an important study'.- C.Smidt, Calvin College '...a helpful contribution to the continuing debate on the nature of evangelicalism and its relationship to political action.' - Richard Turnbull, Church of England Newspaper This book examines the factors that have contributed to evangelical Christian politics in the United States and Great Britain in the past two centuries.
