330 .. $a "Oliver Hart was arguably the most important evangelical leader of the pre-revolutionary
South. For thirty years the pastor of the Charleston Baptist Church, Hart's energetic
ministry breathed new life into that congregation and the struggling Baptist cause
in the region. As the founder of the Charleston Baptist Association, Hart did more
than any single figure to lay the foundations for the institutional life of the Baptist
South, while also working extensively with evangelicals of all denominations to spread
the revivalism of the Great Awakening across the lower South. One reason for Hart's
extensive influence is the uneasy compromise he made with white Southern culture,
most apparent in his willingness to sanctify the institution of slavery rather than
to challenge as his more radical evangelical predecessors had done. While this capitulation
gained Hart and his fellow Baptists access to Southern culture, it would also sow
the seeds of disunion in the larger American denomination Hart worked so hard to construct.
Oliver Hart and the Rise of Baptist America, Eric C. Smith has written the first modern
biography of Oliver Hart, while at the same time interweaving the story of the remarkable
transformation of America's Baptists across the long eighteenth century. It provides
perhaps the most complete narrative of the early development of one of America's largest,
most influential, and most understudied religious groups"
