Religion And The Marketplace In The United States

This collection of essays by American and European authors focuses on the diverse interactions between religious and commercial practices in U.S. history. In essays ranging from colonial American mercantilism to modern megachurches, from literary markets to popular festivals, the authors explore how religious behaviour is shaped by commerce and how commercial practices are informed by religion.
