THE EVOLVING AMERICAN PRESIDENCY RELIGION AND...

This book chronologically analyzes thirteen key US Presidents  from Washington to Trump  to
highlight how religion has informed or influence their politics and policies. For years 
leading scholars have largely neglected religion in presidential studies. Yet  religion has
played a significant role in a number of critical presidencies in US history. This volume
reveals the deep religious side to such presidents as Truman  Eisenhower  and Reagan  among
others  and the impact that faith had on their administrations. Now in its third edition  this
work also provides a fresh look at the legacy of Obama's faith-based administration  as well as
a new chapter on the 2016 Trump campaign's dependence on religious voters to provide a timely
update to a key text in the study of religion and the presidency.
