Broad in scope yet written from a well-defined perspective; this book provides a superb narrative survey of Christian churches; institutions; and interactions with culture in the United States and Canada from the colonial period to the present.One of the foremost authorities on the history of Christianity in North America; Mark Noll has intentionally made this history a comprehensive; balanced one-volume work: the book covers the great variety of Christian experience throughout all of North American history; sensitively encompassing the story of many contrasting groups and regions--elite and common people; whites and blacks; Catholics and Protestants; men and women; North and South. Adding a personal dimension to the narrative; numerous biographical profiles further enrich Noll's multifaceted exploration of major movements and events.
