Paperback. Condición: Good. Vietnam veteran and teacher-practitioner of Transcendental Meditation, David Kidd first learned about the issue of global warming in 1988 and decided to do something about it. He discovered that tree seedlings were relatively cheap, and began to coordinate the planting of trees--not merely in the tens, nor the hundreds, nor even the thousands, but in the millions. In eleven years, Kidd, along with over fifteen hundred schools and citizen groups throughout his native Ohio, managed to plant an astonishing 12 million trees. He ran as an independent candidate for the Ohio House of Representatives in 2002 and is a leading environmental activist, with projects in Pennsylvania, Iowa, Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska, with new projects underway each year. These projects are made available to community groups all over the world, as Kidd advocates local communities owning their own work. Growing America is the story of an extraordinary man. It's about a man who made a commitment to be nonviolent when serving in Vietnam; a man who looked for solutions rather than be overwhelmed by global problems; a man who went against the advice of forestry services and bureaucracy and inspired ordinary citizens and local government to make a difference in their neighborhoods, communities, and throughout the state. More than that, Growing America is about civic involvement, of making communities vibrant and healthy, and inspiring all of us to help America flourish.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. A leading historian of evangelicalism offers a concise history of evangelicals and how they became who they are today  ?How 81 percent of evangelicals could have voted for Donald Trump, given his flouting of their ?traditional values,? has been a question for many Americans since 2016. . . . Kidd, a professor of history at Baylor University, finds an explanation in the history of the relationship between evangelicals and political power.??Frances Fitzgerald, New York Times   Evangelicalism is arguably America?s most controversial religious movement. Nonevangelical people who follow the news may have a variety of impressions about what ?evangelical? means. But one certain association they make with evangelicals is white Republicans. Many may recall that 81 percent of self?described white evangelicals voted for Donald Trump, and they may well wonder at the seeming hypocrisy of doing so.   In this illuminating book, Thomas Kidd draws on his expertise in American religious history to retrace the arc of this spiritual movement, illustrating just how historically peculiar that political and ethnic definition (white Republican) of evangelicals is. He examines distortions in the public understanding of evangelicals, and shows how a group of ?Republican insider evangelicals? aided the politicization of the movement. This book will be a must?read for those trying to better understand the shifting religious and political landscape of America today.…
