Now, in the new paperback edition of Religion in American Life, three of the country's most eminent historians of religion offer a superb overview that spans four centuries, illuminating the rich spiritual heritage central to nearly every event in our nation's history. Jon Butler begins by describing the state of religious affairs in both the Old and New Worlds on the eve of colonization. He traces the progress of religion in the colonies through the time of the American Revolution, 607 $aUnited States$xReligion 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a200.973 700 $aButler$b Jon$f1940-$0791410 701 $aWacker$b Grant$f1945-$0872743 701 $aBalmer$b Randall Herbert$0862328 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451919803321 996 $aReligion in American life$92188846 997 $aUNINA
