Cover, "Killing the Buddha" by Peter Manseau and Jeff Sharlet
|
|
For the majority of Americans, a background in religion is a given, whether they have chosen to embrace, redefine, or completely reject the teachings of childhood.
When Peter Manseau and Jeff Sharlet took their search for religion on the road, they spent an incredible year meeting the many gods of America and the people who worship them: cowboys offering up crippled calves, and storm chasers searching for signs in tornados. The result is a spiritual trip throughout the looking glass. |
