Have you read...

...Primitive Baptist of the Wiregrass South by John G. Crowley? If so, what did you think?

 

Brother Glen, I don't have the book. It is a quite expensive book (ca. $50), so that's why I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations or comments on it. It is printed by and available from the University Press of Florida. The full title is Primitive Baptists of the Wiregrass South : 1815 to the Present. It is supposed to cover the Baptist split of the early 1800's, and the development and later divisions among Primitive Baptists. The Wiregrass region of the South would be south Georgia, northern parts of Florida and possibly some of south Alabama. The book, I am assuming, deals specifically with Primitive Baptists in that region. I think Mr. Crowley is from that area and possibly a former Primitive Baptist. He is a professor at Valdosta State University.
