We Need To Know
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Not long ago I referenced this book to a student as a book that had to be read as part of her Seminary training. It remains the best way to address the ongoing issues of women's place and American religion--Betty DeBerg's writing continues to be a well formed, documented, and written book reminding us what gender/fundamentalism looks like here.

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Betty DeBerg's Ungodly Women: Gender And The First Wave Of American Fundamentalism is a seminal, ground-breaking examination of the role gender and social conventions play in framing religious fundamentalism in America between 1880 and 1930. Ungodly Women is a highly recommended, exceptionally well researched and presented, scholarly and informative treatise that would be a welcome addition to any American history, women's studies, popular culture, and religious studies reading list or curriculum supplement.
