It does so within the confines of a limited geographical region, that of Wilkes County, Georgia. Historians have long recognized the importance of religion within southern culture and society, and more recently, studies of particular groups of southerners, especially slaves and women, have revealed the key role that religion often played in both individual lives and larger communities. This study of religion and society explores that role on a local level, over a time-span of close to a century, making possible a richness of detail not easily achieved in works with a broader focus. |
