---------------------------------------------------------------

Colourful and outrageous, influential yet despicable, J. Frank Norris was a preacher, newspaper publisher, political activist, and all-around subject of controversy. One of the most despised men in traditional Southern Baptist circles, he was also the man most responsible for bringing hard-edged fundamentalism to the South. Barry Hankins traces Norris, the """"Texas Cyclone,"""" from his boyhood in small-town Texas to his death in 1952. Despite scandals, Norris was a man of considerable public influence who travelled the world, corresponded with congressmen, and attended president's Hoover's inauguration at Hoover's invitation. Through his preaching career he battled anyone and everyone he saw as part of the leftist conspiracy to foist liberalism and immorality on America. This account reveals a remarkable man who helped shape the current American religious landscape.
