Lively, utterly convincing.. . . A superbly researched study of grassroots political mobilization. . . . [Dochuk] skillfully traces a continuous narrativestretching from the Dust Bowl to Ronald Reagan, and demonstrates withprodigious research how this narrative fits into a much broader American canvas.. . . From Bible Belt toSunbelt is an importantbook. --Chris Lehmann

Darren Dochuk has painted a vista from which unfolds the creation of Reagan 's nation, as the California dreams of Southern evangelicals become the American dreams of Sunbelt conservatives. Through the guiding telescope of Dochuk 's prose, we meet a fascinating cast of characters destined to be staples in future tellings of this important story. This much anticipated book is well worth the wait. --Steven P. Miller, author of Billy Graham and the Rise of the Republican South
