Gilder Lehrman Institute: History Now and Religion in the Colonial World

Hawaii history teachers, students, historians and history buffs! The Gilder Lehrman Institute is pleased to present its latest issue of History Now, a quarterly online journal for history teachers and students. It is available at this link.

"In this issue, four leading scholars provide a closer look at the religious beliefs and institutions that played major roles in the lives of colonial Americas women and men, and in doing so highlight one of the critical characteristics of our nation: its multicultural heritage."


In addition, the Institute has several podcasts from the Historians on the Record series on the subject of religion in Colonial America. These include John Demos: Religion and Witchcraft in Colonial America and Kevin Phillips: Religion and Politics in the Founding Era. Click this link or download them for free from iTunes.
