Investigating this fiercely pious community at a grassroots level, Darren Dochuk uses the stories of religious leaders, including Billy Graham, as well as many colorful, lesser-known figures to explain how evangelicals organized a powerful political machine. This machine made its mark with Barry Goldwater, inspired Richard Nixon's "Southern Solution," and achieved its greatest triumph with the victories of Ronald Reagan. Based on entirely new research, the manuscript has already won the prestigious Allan Nevins Prize from the Society of American Historians. The judges wrote, "Dochuk offers a rich and multidimensional perspective on the origins of one of the most far-ranging developments of the second half of the twentieth century: the rise of the New Right and modern conservatism."--From publisher description. 000346678 650_0 $$aChristian conservatism$$zCalifornia, Southern$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000346678 650_0 $$aEvangelicalism$$zCalifornia, Southern$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000346678 651_0 $$aCalifornia, Southern$$xChurch history$$y20th century. 000346678 85200 $$bgen$$hBR555.C2$$iD63$$i2011 000346678 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:346678$$pGLOBAL_SET 000346678 980__ $$aBIB 000346678 980__ $$aBOOK
