This Fall at UTC I am teaching "Religion in American Life." I decided to use the aptly titled,
Religion in American Life by Butler, Wacker, and Balmer as the course textbook. One of the requirements for this course is to read and write a review of one of the books below. I obviously have a bias (and more knowledge) toward Protestantism and so if there are any books that I should add to this list (preferably university press texts)--in any of the categories listed below--please let me know.
