Out of the Mouths of Babes by Thomas A Robinson

The 1920s marked one of the greatest cultural shifts in American life, and the risque flapper became the icon of the period. But there was a counter image of the feminine; the decade was also the golden age for girl evangelists who defended traditional morals and traditional Christian beliefs and attitudes.
By demonstrating the prevalence of girl evangelists, Robison and Ruff have enriched our knowledge of American religious practices during the 1920s and 1930s.. they bring to light a chapter in American religious history that deserves further attention and study. * Rebecca L.Davis University of Delaware, The American Historical Review *
Out of the Mouths of Babes is an important foray into the developments of evangelicals of interwar America ... this book will benefit scholars broadly interested in the history of 20th-century American religion, and it is required reading for scholars of revivalism, Pentecostalism, and evangelicalism. * Travis Warren Cooper, Religion and Gender *
