Gail Gehrig
American Civil Religion: An Assessment
Society for the Scientific Study of Religion
Monograph Series Number 3
1979

This is a literature review and literature organization monograph, originally written as a sociology dissertation.

Useful for me in that it reminded me of some categories and approaches to civil religion and religion as a civil experience.

Written like a work of graduate sociology - which is not bad, but which is a very distinctive style.

This was more gutted than read, but I will list it anyhow.

Oh, and I read both of these this morning. (Note, morning started at 4:30am when I handed the toddler to J and went off to start reading.)
