Jill Lepore's This America (2019)

Just completed reading this little book called This America which I enjoyed for its erudition, snapshots of significant events, thinkers/writers, and lively writing style. I would like to further investigate explorations of liberalism. I'm particularly interested in the ability of contemporary believers, especially Muslims, and their ability to practice their faith commitments and flourish in a US context, but also elsewhere in Europe or Muslim-majority countries. 

The book is based on her previously published articles linked here:
