Historian Mark Stoll has a new book out: Inherit the Holy Mountain: Religion and the Rise of American Environmentalism. It seems Protestants in general–and Presbyterians in particular–were more important in the rise of environmentalism than hitherto recognized. (Also, it so happens that Stoll cites one of my articles in the process of making his case.)
Lauren Sutton interviews Stoll at Religion Dispatches: The Religious Roots of American Environmentalism | Religion Dispatches.

I am a historian. I am particularly interested in "place," the American West, American Indians, religion, the environment, books and libraries, and Christian theology and spirituality. For more on me, see About. For stuff by me, see Miscellaneous and also my webpage http://douganderson.academia.edu.
