Abstract

Between Two Rivers chronicles the life of noted scholar of religion, politics, and philosophy, Ronald H. Stone. From his childhood between the East and West banks of the Des Moines River through graduate work in New York between the Hudson and the East Rivers through his scholarly career and retirement in Pittsburgh, between the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers, the book highlights Stone’s focus on Christian social ethics and his prolific writing in the area. The book includes unique insights into some of the renowned scholars Stone worked with closely, including Reinhold Niebuhr and Paul Tillich, and it discusses Stone’s scholarship on the relationship between religion and politics.
