Description: While Baptists through the years have been certain that "war is hell," they have not always been able to agree on how to respond to it. This book traces much of this troubled relationship from the days of Baptist origins with close ties to pacifist Anabaptists to the responses of Baptists in America to the war in Vietnam.
Review Quotes: I found Maurice Dowling's essay on 'Soviet Baptists and the Cold War' the most interesting: reflecting Russia from the inside, rather than from what one might call the speculation of less favorably disposed outsiders.
