* Winner Of The 2017 National Book Critics Circle Award* National Book Award Finalist* Time Magazine Top 10 Nonfiction Book Of The Year* New York Times Notable Book* Publishers Weekly Best Books Of 2017This Epic History (The Boston Globe) From Pulitzer Prizewinning Historian Frances Fitzgerald Is The First To Tell The Powerful, Dramatic Story Of The Evangelical Movement In Americafrom The Puritan Era To The 2016 Election. We Have Long Needed A Fairminded Overview Of This Vitally Important Religious Sensibility, And Fitzgerald Has Now Provided It (The New York Times Book Review).The Evangelical Movement Began In The Revivals Of The Eighteenth And Nineteenth Centuries, Known In America As The Great Awakenings. A Populist Rebellion Against The Established Churches, It Became The Dominant Religious Force In The Country.During The Nineteenth Century White Evangelicals Split Apart, First North Versus South, And Then, Modernist Versus Fundamentalist. After World War Ii, Billy Graham Attracted Enormous Crowds And Tried To Gather All Protestants Under His Big Tent, But The Civil Rights Movement And The Social Revolution Of The Sixties Drove Them Apart Again. By The 1980S Jerry Falwell And Other Southern Televangelists, Such As Pat Robertson, Had Formed The Christian Right. Protesting Abortion And Gay Rights, They Led The South Into The Republican Party, And For Thirtyfive Years They Were The Sole Voice Of Evangelicals To Be Heard Nationally. Eventually A Younger Generation Proposed A Broader Agenda Of Issues, Such As Climate Change, Gender Equality, And Immigration Reform.Evangelicals Now Constitute Twentyfive Percent Of The American Population, But They Are No Longer Monolithic In Their Politics. They Range From Tea Party Supporters To Social Reformers. Still, With The Decline Of Religious Faith Generally, Fitzgerald Suggests That Evangelical Churches Must Embrace Ethnic Minorities If They Are To Survive. A Wellwritten, Thoughtprovoking, And Deeply Researched History That Is Impressive For Its Scope And Level Of Detail (The Wall Street Journal). Her Brilliant Book Could Not Have Been More Timely, More Wellresearched, More Wellwritten, Or More Necessary (The American Scholar).
