Creationism in Twentieth-Century America (10-Volume Set)

About this book

To understand the continued persistence of anti-evolutionism in American cultural history requires an understanding of its history. However, few libraries have collected more than the occasional book or pamphlet on creationism and early creationist periodicals are almost impossible to find. This collection makes available works on creationism by such stalwarts as Arthur I. Brown, William Bell Riley, Harry Rimmer, Byron C. Nelson, George McCready Price, Harold W. Clark and Frank Lewis Marsh. The volumes in this series each contain a preface by science historian Ronald L. Numbers, author of The Creationists: From Scientific Creationism to Intelligent Design that puts these writings into context.
