Reviews

"In American Political Theology, Charles W. Dunn...has admirably fulfilled his modest and useful intention to provide in textbook fashion a dispassionate exposition "of how, why, and when" politics and religion intersect." This is no small feat in treating a subject so vast, undefined, and fraught with intense conflict, and the work can be of considerable usefulness to teachers at any level who need a clear historical and theoretical analysis of the intersection as it has presented itself in the experience of our country...The essays are, for the most part, intellectually and ethically muscular and will well repay reading by anyone who is already fairly well-grounded in the Founding.-Chronicles
