| The history of American religion has been largely shunned as an academic subject in public secondary schools. In recent years, however, there has been a growing desire among many teachers to incorporate religious history into social studies and humanities curricula in public schools. Divining America is an excellent resource for teachers and students of American history looking to enrich narratives of the nation's past by treating the religious dimension. While the site is oriented primarily toward public secondary school teachers, it is also highly appropriate for teachers in religion-affiliated schools where the comparative historical study of America's religious traditions is a curricular option. |
