In this Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Rhys Isaac describes and analyzes the
dramatic confrontations, primarily religious and political, that transformed
Virginia in the second half of the eighteenth century. Making use of the observational techniques of the cultural anthropologist, Isaac vividly recreates and painstakingly dissects a society in the turmoil of profound inner change.
