About the Item

The Kingdom of God in America by H. Richard Niebuhr. Rare Signed 1st EdIt hardcover with dust jacket. Published by Willet, Clark & Co. Chicago and New York. This book remains the classic reflection of the Protestant roots and ethos behind pluralistic America and its religions today. The new raw and rich pluralism that challenges the Protestant hegemony in American life has left many Protestants longing to get back to their roots. Niebuhr's book identifies and describes those roots for Protestants, especially Congregationalists, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Methodists, Quakers, Baptists, and Lutherans. See "Rereading Niebuhr’s The Kingdom of God in America by Mark A. Granquist." NPT Books a division of N.P. Trent Antiques has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
