A detailed and scholarly account of religious belief and conflict in the strategically important province of Inner Austria between 1580 and 1630, this work analyzes the aims, achievements, and shortcomings of the Habsburgs' confessional crusade in Styria. It also shows how, although the progress of Protestantization was reversed, the Counter-Reformation left an ambivalent legacy to modern Austrian.
