We're of ten told that the United States is, was, and always has been a Christian nation. But in One Nation Under God, historian Kevin M. Kruse reveals that the idea of a "Christian America" originated only in the 1930s when businessmen enlisted religious activists in their fight against FDR's New Deal. Provocative and authoritative, One Nation Under God reveals how the unholy alliance of money, religion, and politics created a false origin story that continues to define and divide American politics to this day.
