Formation and early releases: 1971–73
The Eagles began in early 1971, when Linda Ronstadt and then-manager John Boylan recruited local musicians Glenn Frey and Don Henley for her band.[5] Henley had moved to Los Angeles from Texas with his band Shiloh (produced by Kenny Rogers),[6] and Frey had come from Michigan and formed Longbranch Pennywhistle; they had met in 1970 at The Troubadour in Los Angeles and became acquainted through their mutual record label, Amos Records.[7][8] Randy Meisner, who had been working with Ricky Nelson's backing band, the Stone Canyon Band, and Bernie Leadon, a veteran of the Flying Burrito Brothers, joined Ronstadt's group of performers for her summer tour promoting the Silk Purse album.[5][9]
These four played live together behind Ronstadt only once for a July concert at Disneyland,[5] but all four appeared on her eponymous album.[10] With Ronstadt's blessing, Henley and Frey asked Leadon and Meisner to form a band and they soon signed with Asylum Records, the new label started by David Geffen.[11] The name of the band was first suggested by Leadon during a peyote and tequila-influenced group outing in the Mojave Desert, when he recalled reading about the Hopis' reverence for the eagle.[12] Steve Martin, a friend of the band from their early days at The Troubadour, recounts in his autobiography that he suggested that they should be referred to as "the Eagles", but Frey insists that the group's name is simply "Eagles".[13] Geffen and partner Elliot Roberts initially managed the band; they were later replaced by Irving Azoff.

DuBois: American Prophet
Greetings!
This is a new blog to foster discussion, sharing of links, and (I hope) eventually a group blog in American religious history. Please feel free to join the discussion; here is my home page. Yes, it hasn't been updated for a couple of millennia.
Let me start with a recommnendation for my friend Edward J. Blum's new book W. E. B. Du Bois: American Prophet. Blum's work should foster a new level of discussion on one of America's most profound religious thinkers.
Lately I've been following the fascinating discussion at Mary Dudziak's Legal History Blog, as well as Mark Grimsley's posts at Blog Them Out of the Stone Age and of course my old friend Ralph Luker's Cliopatria. A more complete listing of history blogs may be found at Cliopatria's history blogroll.
I've been looking around for other American religious history blogs -- anybody out there?

Religion and Race in Early America: Beam Me Up from this Planet
Here's a fellow summer toiler in the vineyards of religion and race in early America. While Historianess must produce syllabi and book contracts, Slothful Colorado resident must get going on his chapters of Jesus in Red, White and Black. I'm currently mulling over how Native Americans in the colonial and antebellum eras encountered the idea of "Jesus," or "Christ." Having spent the bulk of my research career in Civil War to present, this is a new enterprise for me. Historian to Enterprise: beam me up from this strange planet, where I suddenly understand very little.
American Religious History Syllabi and Links
It's on the blogroll, but everyone interested in American religious history should find the syllabi in American religious history posted from H-AMREL to be of use. Also, a shout out to Randall Stephens and the Journal of Southern Religion, a pioneering and perservering online journal. I posted my own personal reflections on writing Freedom's Coming there a while back. The current issue has an excellent critique by Charles Reagan Wilson of the film Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus.
Religion by region lives! Here's a great series of map summaries of U.S. religious expression ca. 2000, from the Glenmary Research Center. Nancy Ammerman has a good full review of the Religion by Region books (eight in all; I contributed to one), including the strengths and weaknesses of using datasets such as the Glenmary and American Religious Identification Surveys. Statistics tell some, but not all.

Religion, Race, and the Right
Here is Mark Noll's interesting review of my book Freedom's Coming, from the Journal of the American Academy of Religion. He provides an excellent overview of the book, says some kind words, and ends with an interesting critique and discussion.
He begins:
He begins:
Paul Harvey's well-researched book provides a welcome overview of a complex
subject that has been as important for national public life as for American
religious history. Continuity in the volume is maintained by Harvey's focus on
"theological racism," "racial interchange," and "Christian interracialism" in
one level, Harvey offers a relatively clear history of causes and effects, with
widespread "theological racism" being undercut by "racial interchange and
leading on to "Christian interracialism." Yet most of the book does not dwell on
this large-scale narrative; rather, it features a great deal of insightful local
history, many telling personal vignettes, careful attention to institutional
Crocodile Tears for Military History, and Religious History
All the whining lately about the state of military history gets an excellent response from Mark Grimsley.
It reminds me a bit of occasional whining I still hear -- more from the
public than the profession -- about how religious history has somehow
not been given its due in the academy, or how scholars of faith are
hounded or driven out. Time for the p.c. conservatives to get over
themselves. If you apply for 3 or 4 academic jobs in a year and don't
get one, for god's sake, join the crowd. By this standard, everyone in
every field in American history would feel victimized.
Meanwhile, Catherine Brekus's introductory essay ("Searching for Women in Narratives of American Religious History") to the new anthology The Religious History of American Women: Reimagining the Past is a must read for scholars in American religious history. She names names and takes the historiography to task--women's history for not understanding religion, and religious history for continuing to marginalize women. The essays in the volume are strong.

Really American Religious History A-Z
I'm currently co-editing (along with Ed Blum and bibliographic editor Randall Stephens) the Columbia Guide to Religion in American History, which will feature, among other good things, about twenty-one essays by top scholars in the field on all manner of topics, from "Colonial Encounters" to "Religion and Politics" to "Islam in America."
One of the appendices for the book will have a glossary -- American religious history A-Z. So, what do you think are some really important but often overlooked terms -- people, events, movements, whatever -- that should go in such a glossary. Send me some suggestions, and I'll give you the grand prize -- a tour of Focus on the Family headquarters if/when you visit Colorado Springs.
P.S.: Somebody really needs to do a good, solid, non-polemical academic history of Focus on the Family -- anybody doing any such thing out there?

Oath for Experts Revisited
I was just reminded by Maarja Krustein of a concept I was messing around a while back, of getting people together to draft a new “oath for experts”.
I had great ambitions a few years back about this idea, about trying to
renovate what an expert ought to act like, to describe a shared
professional ethic for experts that would help us explain what our value
still might be in a crowdsourced, neoliberal moment. The Hippocratic
Oath is at least one of the reasons why many people still trust the
professionalism of doctors (and are so pointedly scandalized when it is
unambiguously violated).
We live in a moment where increasingly many people either believe
they can get “good enough” expertise from crowdsourced knowledge online
or where experts are all for sale to the highest bidder or will narrowly
conform their expertise to fit the needs of a particular ideology or
belief system.
I think in both cases these assumptions are still more untrue than
true. Genuine experts, people who have spent a lifetime studying
particular issues or questions, still know a great deal of value that
cannot be generated by crowdsourced systems–in fact, most crowdsourcing
consists of locating and highlighting such expertise rather than
spontaneously generating a comparable form of knowledge in response to
any query. I still think a great many experts, academic and otherwise,
remain committed to providing a fair, judicious accounting of what they
know even when that knowledge is discomforting to their own political or
economic interests.
Mind, you, crowdsourcing and other forms of networked knowledge are
nevertheless immensely valuable, and sometimes a major improvement over
the slow, expensive or fragile delivery of authoritative knowledge that
experts in the past could provide. Constructing accessible sources of
everyday reference in the pre-Internet world was a difficult, laborious
process.
It’s also undoubtedly true that there are experts who sell their
services in a crass way, without much regard for the craft of research
or study, to whomever is willing to pay. But this is why something like
an oath is necessary, and why I think everyone who depends upon being
viewed as a legitimate expert has a practical reason to join a
large-scale professional alliance designed to reinvigorate the
legitimacy of expertise. This is why professionalization happened during
the 20th Century, as groups of experts who shared a common training and
craft tried to delegitimate unscrupulous, predatory or dangerous forms
of pseudo-expertise and insist on rigorous forms of licensing. I don’t
think you can ever create a licensing system for something as broad as
expertise, but I do think you could expect a common ethic.
The last time I tried to put forward one plank of a plausible oath, I
made the mistake of picking an example that created more heat than
light. I might end up doing that again, perhaps by underestimating just
how many meal tickets this proposed oath might cancel. But let’s try a
few items that I personally would be glad to pledge, in the simplest and
most direct form that I can think of:
1) An expert should continuously disclose all organizations, groups
and companies to whom they have provided direct advice or counsel,
regardless of whether the provision of this advice was compensated or
freely given. All experts should maintain a permanent, public transcript
of such disclosures.
2) An expert should publically disclose all income received from
providing expert advice to clients other than their main employer. All
experts should insist that their main employer (university, think tank,
political action committee, research institute) disclose its major
sources of funding as well. The public should always know whether an
expert is paid significantly by an organization, committee, company or
group that directly benefits from that person’s expert knowledge.
3) Any expert providing testimony at a criminal or civil trial should
do so for free. No expert should be provided compensation directly or
indirectly for providing expert testimony. Any expert who serves as a
paid consultant for a plaintiff or a defendant should not provide expert
witness at a trial involving that client.
4) All experts should disclose findings, information or knowledge
that contradicts or challenge their own previous conclusions or
interpretation when that information becomes known to them in the course
of their own research or analysis. Much as newspapers are expected to
publish corrections, experts should be prepared to do the same.
Do You Know Young Scholars Syllabi ?
There are an awful lot of great American religious history syllabi available at the Center for the Study of Religion and American Culture, from the various "classes" of the Young Scholars in American Religion program. Here, for example, are the syllabi from the 1997-99 class.
Great teaching resources. I'm putting a more complete list under the
"Teaching Resources and Syllabi" roll on the left side of the blog
(scroll down). Please send useful links that you use in teaching.
Oh My God !! Jesus in Red, White, and Black
One of my more fun classes ever -- in spite of it being a night class, 7:15 - 9:50 p.m. -- "Jesus in Red, White, and Black." Partly it was inspired and taking off from Stephen Prothero's American Jesus: How the Son of God Became a National Icon" -- which ex-blogger Mode for Caleb gives and extended and thoughtful response to here. Our class covered everything from the Jesuit Relations to Du Bois to Vine DeLoria. We watched The Apostle and discussed R. Marie Griffith's excellent review of the film. The student blogs and journals from this class were terrific.
Also recommended: Mark Noll's lectures at Princeton University last fall, on the subject "Race, Religion, and American Politics: From Nat Turner to George W. Bush" -- podcasts and web downloads are available if you're on a high speed computer.
What Can You Do with Denominational History? By Lincoln Mullen
Lincoln Mullen
I recently read Thomas Kidd and Barry Hankins's Baptists in America: A History
(2015). I must have liked it, since my father, for many years a Baptist
pastor, says that I've tried to send him copies more than once. This
book deserves a proper review, perhaps paired with David Bebbington's Baptists Through the Centuries: A History of a Global People
(2010). But for today I want to use the book to think through what a
denominational history can accomplish. Here are a few thoughts about the
particular set of things the book is able to accomplish because it is a
denominational history.
- A denominational history can cross the color line.
This book is not filled with "Baptists" and "black Baptists," where
unmarked Baptists can be assumed to be white. Rather, Kidd and Hankins
are careful to write "white Baptists" when they mean white Baptists, and
write "black Baptists" when they mean black Baptists. A denominational
history is of course far from the only way to discuss race in the
context of religious history. Yet we can contrast the effects of the
decision to focus on Baptists with the decision to focus on, say,
evangelicalism. Recent histories of evangelicalism or fundamentalism
tend to take white Christians as their subjects, whether or not there
are good reasons
to question that demarcation, acknowledge the color line, and leave it
at that. If race is the single most-important category in U.S. history
(and it is), then our histories of U.S. religion ought to be able to
discuss race at least as well as this denominational history.
