Best's Passionately Human, No Less Divine, Princeton University Press, 2005, is a scholarly study. Its strength is that it is a focused academic history of religion and culture in Black Chicago from 1915 to 1952, drawing on church, migration and cultural records from the period. Its limit is the ordinary one for a study bounded to one city and period: it does not itself extend to the wider national picture of Black religious life across the same decades.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (9 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1Reliability tier 1: a focused scholarly history from Princeton University Press drawing on church, migration and cultural records of its period, bounded to one city and period rather than the wider national picture.NotesWell-attestedScholarly study of religion and culture in Black Chicago, 1915 to 1952, Princeton University Press, 2005.CitationAuthorWell-attestedWallace D.
