Summary
America's Road to Jerusalem: The Impact of the Six-Day War on Protestant Politics examines the role of the Six-Day War in American Protestant politics and culture. The author argues that the conflict shifted the balance of power between Evangelicals and Modernists, eventually culminating in the Trump Administration's 2017 recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
