- Marsden traces American higher education from the founding of Harvard in the 1630s to the collapse of the Protestant establishment in the 1960s, and argues that the universities did not so much abandon their religious commitments as reason their way out of them. The paged text runs to xiv + 462. No contents list is published; it awaits a photograph.
