Publisher's Note
In more than 300 entries, this volume brings to life the women who pioneered American's religious institutions and places their work in the broader social, cultural, and political contexts of their times. The encyclopedia emphasizes the nation's diversity of religious beliefs and practices, with entries on African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Native Americans and on such denominations as Baptists, Buddhists, Christian Scientists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Jews, Mormons, Muslims, Roman Catholics, and Unitarians. Cross-references direct readers to related information and bibliographical references accompany each entry. A comprehensive bibliography, detailed chronology, and index are also included. Church libraries as well as scholars of women's and religious studies will find the Encyclopedia of American Women and Religion an invaluable reference tool.

Industry reviews
Historian Benowitz has defined religion broadly, including not just well-established denominations but also "groups that some might consider quasi-religious, such as witches and ecofeminists." Each entry ends with See also references and a list of secondary sources. There are no internal cross references, but the index does a good job in this regard. The encyclopedia is particularly strong in its biographical coverage, often providing one to two pages of information about little-known women such as the anti-Semite and anti-Communist Elizabeth Kirkpatrick Dilling. In addition to the numerous biographies, there are topical entries about religious denominations and beliefs; short essays about issues relating to women and religion, such as abortion or ministers' wives; and extensive coverage of religious organizations, from the American Missionary Association to the Young Women's Christian Association. The encyclopedia concludes with a chronology and a 21-page bibliography. Libraries supporting women's studies or religious studies will find this of interest and value. Cynthia A.
