Recenzii
"Evans writes with verve and energy, and his book is likely to turn the heads of those who imagine a history of American Christianity as having to do with stained glass and wooden pews." -- Ted A Campbell, Associate Professor of Church History, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University
"Evans' distinctive approach to history and historiography pushes professors and students alike to think beyond what actually happened and to contemplate critically and sympathetically the range of choices historians have made in telling their particular tales. Histories of American Christianity helps us listen for and to the stories of America's religious past and helps us better comprehend the perils and possibilities of America's religious future." -- Elizabeth H Flowers, Assistant Professor, Texas Christian University & author of "Into the Pulpit: Southern Baptist Women & Power Since World War II"
"Histories of American Christianity is bursting with the integrity of historical context and brocaded with fresh insights." -- Leonard Sweet, E Stanley Jones Professor at Drew University, Distinguished Visiting Professor at George Fox University
"Christopher Evans succeeds in presenting a complicated story with clarity and insight." -- Mark Noll, author of "America's God: From Jonathan Edwards to Abraham Lincoln"
"A rich and textured history that yields a fresh perspective on religious life in America." -- Randall Balmer, author of "The Making of Evangelicalism"
... a very highly recommended history for personal, seminary, community, and academic library Christian Studies and American History reference collections and supplemental reading lists. -- The Midwest Book Review
