Mark Galli, Christianity Today Senior Managing Editor, writes, “The topic—Christianity in the American West—is as big as the region, and as diverse. There is no overarching narrative… no single figure… Local heroes and local stories dominate the West.” This issue of Christian History & Biography recounts the neglected story of Christianity and the settling of the American West. Inside it are diary entries, biographical anecdotes, and intriguing articles that capture the courage and ruggedness of Christian faith in the West.
