Introducing American Religion provides a lively and concise
overview of the historical development of religion in the USA. In
four parts, Charles Lippy traces the history of American religion
from Europe, Native American and African life, through to the age
of independence, and on to the late twentieth century up to the
present day. The narrative lays particular stress on the
development of diversity and pluralism in American religious life.
It explores the African American experience through slavery, Roman
Catholic and Jewish immigration, political and economic factors,
the impact of Latino culture, and the growth of Hinduism and
Buddhism, as well as the concept of American civil religion.
Introducing American Religion is ideal reading for students wishing

Illustrated throughout and featuring quotations from original
sources, it includes text boxes, summary charts, study questions, a
glossary and lists of further reading and weblinks to aid students
