" -- American Studies International "... concise, insightful, and provocative... an important contribution that warrants the attention of all students of American religion." -- Journal of the Early Republic "... an important accomplishment... " -- Journal of American History "... Pointer has written a fine piece of church history that explores the interactions of denominations and politics in eighteenth-century New York.

Pointer has written the most complete analysis we have of the impact and development of evangelical Protestantism in the province and state before 1800." -- New York History "... this is really an engaging piece of scholarship intended for the student of early America, but certainly useful to anyone having an interest in the origins of American pluralism and its impact on religious equality and toleration." -- History "A major new study in colonial American religious history...
