2007 book 21

Colleen McDannell's Material Christianity: Religion and Popular Culture in America
This was a really fun book examining the ways art and objects are used by Christians. It looks at everything from fancy bibles in the 1800s to cemetaries to Mormom garments to the current spate of Christian, well, everything. Its ample illustrations are pretty useful as well.
