American Jesus
Stephen Prothero
How the Son of God Became a National Icon
Stephen Prothero's American Jesus is a major new world of history: a
vivid chronicle of the distinctive "images of Jesus" cherished by the American
people, and an incisive account of Jesus' transformation, in Americans' hearts
and minds, from crucified Lord to folk hero, from divinity to celebrity.
