Religion in America is a collaborative blog about the history of American religion. It is written primarily by a few graduate students, but other authors are welcome to contribute.
The topic of the blog includes all aspects of American religion. Most of the posts are likely about Christianity in America, but we’re not limited to that topic. We’re also not limited by time period. One of the contributors is an early Americanist, the other studies twentieth-century America, and we try to cover the periods in between as well.
The blog includes several kinds of posts. From our reading (pretty heavy for graduate students) we try to review books about American religion. Occasionally we write historiographical essays. When we visit historical sites about American religion, we try to post photographs and descriptions of the site. We also include essays drawn from our own research into American history.
If there is something that you would like us to write about, or if you have a suggestion generally, look up our e-mail addresses and send us a message. We’d be glad to hear from you.
