In Union Made, Heath W. Carter advances a bold reinterpretation of the origins of American Social Christianity. While historians have often attributed the rise of the Social Gospel to middle-class ministers, seminary professors, and social reformers, this book tells a new story in which a little known cast of working-class believers take center stage.
