Description

This volume charts new territory in its coverage of religious history and diversity in the United States. More than 800 entries, 100 of which have been added for this edition, outline the numerous philosophers, personalities, social issues, and cultural histories of religious practices throughout American history. Special emphasis has been given to recent developments in American religious life and on the historical contributions of people long neglected by religious historians, including African Americans, Native Americans, and women.
