Summary
Places of Worship provides an easily accessible guide to researching and writing the history of a synagogue, church, temple, or mosque. Wind's emphasis on connecting the individual congregation with the larger community and the larger political and social forces of the time make Places of Worship useful for both the professional and amateur historian. Appendices provide guidance on important works in American religion and a directory of helpful archives and historical agencies.
