Amazon.com description: Product Description: Our history books are full of important episodes in America's past, and of general biographies of those who have made that history. Rarely do they record, however, how an individual's faith shaped those events. Here, filling in the missing pieces, are thirty-seven portraits of defining moments in American religious history ranging from the Pilgrims to contemporary figures, including: Samuel Sewall, Ben Franklin, George Washington, Johnny Appleseed, Sojourner Truth, Emily Dickinson, Robert E. Lee, Woodrow Wilson, Dorothy Day, Bess Truman, John F. Kennedy, and others.
