Your bibliography encompasses a helpful mix of secular and faith-based sources, which is an important mix for your research. I am curious how you unearthed the source from 1947; that' pretty old! You wisely point out in your annotation that newer studies have been published; I think adding a recent academic book or journal article to your repertoire would be beneficial.
