Abstract: According to the reviewer, “Robins does an excellent job of placing Tomlinson into a proper historical context, weaving together the social, political, religious, and economic aspects of his narrative. He aptly proves that Tomlinson was a masterful religious entrepreneur who effectively marketed his wares to a target audience, learned from his mistakes, and built his legacy by building institutions.”
