  • Book Description

    The Cold War was in many ways a religious war. Presidents Truman and Eisenhower and many other Americans opposed communism because of its hostility to religion. Since American Protestant churches were divided, American political leaders constructed a new civil religion to mobilize domestic support, to determine the boundaries of containment, to unite people against communism, and to undermine communist governments abroad.
