It covers active religious centers in all 50 states, including the location, origin, & history of a site, its size & accessibility, & its purpose & influence. Because all sites are active religious centers, entries detail site supervision, location, & layout & include telephone & fax numbers & e-mail & Web addresses. In addition to a site’s significance, history, & architecture, the coverage also summarizes its religious activities & outreach programs. A detailed timeline charts the growth of widespread religious expression in America. Glossary. Bibliography. Illus.
