The subtitle is "The Fundamentalist War on America's Freedoms in Religion, Politics, and Our Private Lives." It was written in 1982, updated in 1984 (appropriately enough) by Flo Conway and Jim Siegelman. If you have, please give me your comments, and how you feel things have changed over the period since it was written.

I haven't finished it yet, but so far find it much more interesting and factual than a recent book of the same name by Terry Eagleton.
Originally written in journalistic style 25 years ago, it was probably prime information (shocking to many) at the time. Much of it seems old hat now. Societies have a way of self-correcting.
The term "Fundamentalist" was cast in the broadest sense of the word. Much that has happened since has been associated with the build up to the current internal war within this group. There is no united front. There seems to be little "honor among Fundies" either.
