Robert H. Craig This meticulously researched study is a welcome counterpoint to the many histories of United States Christianity that have, as the author rightly observes, Yocused primarily on institutional development, disembodied theological debates, and the experience of transplanted European immi grants. Craig discusses a varied array of movements, organizations, and activists, many largely unstudied, who sought to aid the poor and oppressed through Christian social action... [This] thoughtful, lucad book will engage not only historians but also theologians, ethicists, political scien tists, sociologists, indeed anyone interested in the convergence of religion and politics in the United States," - The Journal of American History "Religion a Veligion and Radical Palities is a helpful analysis of several chapters in American religious history.... built around a series of biographical sketches that explore the lives of people such as Terence Powderly, Frances Willard, Mother Jones, George Washington Woodbey, Claude Williams, Howard Kester, Harry F. Ward, A. J. Muste, and Dorothy Day.... [It] is a remarkably strong book."
