"A deftly detailed history of Christianity's service to capitalism
in the United States."--New Republic
"An illuminating addition to the growing field of the history of
American conservatism and capitalism, as well as a vibrant study of
the way cultural influence works-one that will make it impossible
to take for granted the small print on the back of a dollar bill
ever again.... This is what's most interesting in the story Kruse
is telling: the pattern of continuity and change that links our own
time with those that came before."--The Nation
"An important and convincing reminder that the roots of
Christianity were cultivated well before the era of the religious
right."--Wall Street Journal
"Fascinating."--Washington Post
"Kruse tells a big and important story about the mingling of
religion and politics since the 1930s."--New York Times Book Review
