Reformed Theology in America: A History of Its Modern Development

What does it mean to be reformed? Reformed Theology in America answers this question by tracing three diverse strands of American Reformed thought: Princeton theology, Dutch Reformed theology, and Southern Reformed theology. In this historical survey several notable scholars, including George Marsden, Mark Noll, Stanford Reid, C. T. McIntire and Luder Whitlock, explore the key themes and leading thinkers of each tradition. Among the historical figures discussed are Charles Hodge, Benjamin Warfield, Louis Berkhof, Cornelius Van Til, and Robert Lewis Dabney.
