Religion, race, and American history.
America's Religious History is an up-to-date, narrative-based introduction to the unique role of faith in American history.

Kidd interweaves religious history and key events from the larger story of American history, including:
- The Great Awakening
- The American Revolution
- Slavery and the Civil War
- Civil rights and church-state controversy
- Immigration, religious diversity, and the culture wars
Useful for both classroom and personal study, America's Religious History provides a balanced, authoritative assessment of how faith has shaped American life and politics.
