Exploring the origins of American providentialism, the book delves into how the belief in divine favor shaped national identity and purpose. It highlights the British influences on American religious nationalism prior to the Revolution and examines the challenges faced by white Americans in reconciling their national mission with the nation's racial diversity. By addressing themes like manifest destiny and millenarianism, it reveals how this conviction impacted perceptions of events and individuals outside the providential narrative.
