"A beautifully written and artfully constructed book that draws intriguing conclusions about the nature of evangelical Protestantism."-Mark Noll, University of Notre Dame (Mark Noll) "This book charts new territory by close examination of a series of case studies of people previously well-known but not previously compared. Hempton succeeds wonderfully well in producing compelling mini-biographies."-Thomas Kidd, author of The Great Awakening: The Roots of Evangelical Christianity in Colonial America (Thomas Kidd) "Hempton tells these stories with excellent skill, insight, and fair-mindedness. These accounts of loss of faith of prominent figures illuminate not only their personal struggles but also some fascinating relationships between evangelicalism and mainstream public culture, especially in Great Britain and the United States."-George Marsden, author of Fundamentalism and American Culture (George Marsden)
