Dreams by Rob Macgregor
In two editions over 40 years, Edwin Gaustad's Atlas of American Religion has been an essential guide to the American religious experience. Now the New Historical Atlas of Religion in America takes the story into the new millennium.Expanded, reorganized, and now in full color, the new edition of this classic reference work is an arresting visual and narrative portrait of the growth, development, and diversity of America's communities of faith across nearly 400 years.
Here is a vastly more complex American religious life--from the decline of mainstream Protestantism to the emergence of evangelical churches and the growing influence of Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and other faiths. Parts One and Two are a history--in maps and text--of American religions. Part Three focuses in-depth on Lutherans, Mormons, and Roman Catholics. Part Four examines the political, cultural, and social aspects of religion in American public life.
Lavishly illustrated with full-color maps, charts, and diagrams, the new Atlas is an essential resource for all readers--students, teachers, scholars, and everyone seeking to understand the remarkable religious history of the United States.
When Rob MacGregor enrolled at the University of Minnesota in the late 1960s, he planned to study archaeology, but he ended up majoring in journalism, and over the next dozen years worked as a reporter and editor. He never gave up his interest in ancient civilizations, and between jobs and on vacations he explored archaeological sites in Mexico, Central and South America, Europe, and North Africa. Those experiences would later come in handy when he wrote the novelization of the blockbuster movie Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and then went on to write six original Indiana Jones novels for LucasFilm and Bantam Books. His novel Prophecy Rock won the Edgar Allan Poe Award in the young adult category. His nonfiction work includes several books on dreams and dream interpretation, divination and astrology, the sixth sense, and yoga. In addition to writing, Rob teaches yoga, based on his own system called Astro-Yoga. He and his wife live in Florida.
