This title is a history of a nation, a publishing company, and a person who transformed the religious literary canon for years to come. Contrary to what many popular religion writers say, Prothero shows how the world’s religions ask different questions, tackle different problems, and aim at different goals. Prothero pinpoints key moments in American history that spawned the current epidemic of religious illiteracy, and practical solutions on how to gain it back.
