Gr. 6-12. This newest installment of the Religion in American Life series focuses on four major strains of religious evolution in America. It begins with Protestant immigration, tracing the historical events that led many of the first settlers to North America, and then, examining the intriguing development of mutually intolerant religious factions as they spread from New England westward. The chapter on Catholic immigration explains how different cultures' interpretations of dogma melded with traditions of the homeland to create a diverse yet eventually unified stronghold to compete with Protestant loyalties in the U.S. Separate chapters on Jewish immigration and the emergence of Asian and Middle Eastern religions over the past 50 years round out the text. Thanks to her qualifying statements in the introduction, Joselit's general coverage of only four religious strands makes reading both manageable and meaningful. Rather than referring to specific individuals or religious leaders in any of the chapters, Joselit paints vivid portraits of unique group experiences. Many black-and-white photos enhance the text. Chronology appended. Roger Leslie
