Sinossi

The rise of the Religious Right is one of the most important political and cultural stories of our time. To many, the controversial movement threatens to upset the nation's delicate balance of religious and secular interests. To others, the Religious Right is valiantly struggling to preserve religious liberty and to prove itself the last, best hope to save America's soul. In With God on Our Side - the first balanced account of the impact of conservative Christians on post-war politics - William Martin paints a vivid and authoritative portrait of America's most powerful political interest group.
