Review title: A Christian History?
Product review: There are many problems with this book, but the greatest one may be that Manuel and Marshall set out to find a "Christian" history of America. The problem with this is that when ideology comes first, facts must be shoehorned to fit a predetermined interpretation. This cannot but lead to intellectual dishonesty. Whether that ideology is religious (in any form) or secular, scholarship withers when it is asked to be put to the service of a greater good.
