Making the Bible Belt by Joseph L. Locke Book PDF Summary
"By reconstructing the religious crusade to achieve prohibition in Texas, Making the Bible Belt reveals how southern religious leaders overcame longstanding anticlerical traditions, built a formidable social movement, and, in the course of outlawing liquor, injected religion irreversibly into public life." -- Provided by the publisher.
