Reviews
"In these pages Stephen Prothero has brilliantly captured the American spirit-a spirit that has always seen us through hours of division and disagreement. With Prothero's expert analysis, these texts should spark civil conversation, informed debate, and intelligent discussion." -- -Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of American Lion . "There are certain speeches, songs, books, letters, laws, and axioms that Americans honor enough to argue about, says religion scholar Stephen Prothero. Like the Declaration of Independence, this almost consecrated canon inspires endless commentary about what it means to be American-and what 'America' means." -- Religion News Service "Required for putting in one place so many historic pieces that are more opined over than actually read. Awesome scholarship to an admirable purpose." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) " The American Bible is a provocative, brilliantly realized illumination of American values by means of excerpted historical documents." -- Colloquy, Harvard University " In The American Bible , Prothero has turned his considerable talents to assembling a version of the American canon. The author's prose is, as usual, spritely, informed and incisive." -- Washington Post, 'In these pages Stephen Prothero has brilliantly captured the American spirit-a spirit that has always seen us through hours of division and disagreement.

Synopsis
The New York Times bestselling author of Religious Literacy and God Is Not One presents a provocative crash course in the great "American scriptures"-those texts that have both divided and defined our understanding of what it is to be American. Stephen Prothero gives readers an exciting and user-friendly introduction to American cultural history in The American Bible. Highlighting the touchstones of our collective cultural legacy, from Thomas Paine's Common Sense to Maya Lin's Vietnam Veterans Memorial; from the speeches of Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Ronald Reagan to the novels of Mark Twain and Ayn Rand, and beyond, Prothero's stirring and provocative handbook peels back the curtain on the inner workings of what makes America tick., The New York Time s bestselling author of Religious Literacy and God Is Not One presents a provocative crash course in the great "American scriptures"--those texts that have both divided and defined our understanding of what it is to be American.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

    I ordered three items from this seller, and one was damaged in transit (the seller is not at fault for this). However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.

    The seller Orion Tech LLC is one of my occasional shopping sites. This purchase I had a problem, the only one so far. The books were packed well, shipped quickly and just as described. But this was not the book I ordered. I sent two photos of the book received and the ISBN code and I received a prompt refund. I bought two books the third book was free! I am still delighted being an Orion Tech Books customer and will be shopping at Orion Tech Books in the future. Thank you.
