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 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 $a9910778346703321 996 $aReligion in American life$93821685 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05496nam 22006971 450 001 9910962426703321 005 20251116200111.0 010 $a1-135-28441-5 010 $a1-315-03902-8 035 $a(CKB)3710000000081692 035 $a(EBL)1581764 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001081627 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11568366 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001081627 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11078289 035 $a(PQKB)10233635 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1581764 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1581764 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10823915 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL559694 035 $a(OCoLC)866446099 035 $a(OCoLC)868927678 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB133117 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000081692 100 $a20011011d2002 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aBritish government policy and decolonisation, 1945-1963 $escrutinising the official mind /$fFrank Heinlein ; with a foreword by Robert Holland 210 1$aAbingdon :$cRoutledge,$d2002. 215 $a1 online resource (352 p.) 225 1 $aCass series--British foreign and colonial policy series,$x1467-5013 300 $aRevised version of author's PhD thesis at the European University Institute in Florence, 1999. 311 08$a1-138-96509-X 311 08$a0-7146-5220-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aCover; Half Title; Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Foreword; Series Editor's Preface; Preface; List of Abbreviations; 1.
