?Glazier's study of Spiritual Baptists on Trinidad is welcome. He accounts for religous vitality and innovation in terms of leaders' decision-making. He argues that ritual syncretism takes an unusual form among Spiritual Baptists, that solidarity is achieved despite a lack of consensus or ritual uniformity, that leaders' activities as entrepreneurs and as interpreters of experience, not as charismatic figures shape the church, that the church/sect/cult typology simply does not apply to Caribbean religion. ... Appropriate for libraries serving upper-division undergraduates and graduate students.?-Choice
