A Divinity for All Persuasions: Almanacs and Early American Religious Life - Religion in America
Tomlin, T.J. (Assistant Professor of History, Assistant Professor of History, University of Northern Colorado)
This book uncovers the prevailing religious sensibility at the center of early America's most popular form of print: the almanac. Employing a wealth of archival material, T. J. Tomlin reveals the pan-Protestant sensibility distributed through the almanacs' pages between 1730 and 1820, finding that almanacs played an unparalleled role in reinforcing British North America's "shared religious culture."
