Chosen Nations: Pursuit of the Kingdom of God and Its Influence on Democratic Values in Late Nineteenth-Century Britain and the United States
* How has the 'myth of chosenness' been a blessing---and a curse---to others? Focusing on how theologians Robert William Drake, Hugh Price Hughes, Josiah Strong, and others sought to 'Chrisitianize the social order,' Littlefield's balanced study shows how their pursuit of a true, free, national Christianity supported Western democratic values---and fueled imperalism, anti-Catholicism, and more. 200 pages, softcover from Fortress.
