Eerdmans books: kindle sale alert and book recs

Nadya Williams   |  October 21, 2024

Beth Felker Jones alerted her newsletter readers to this important bit of info for the start of a new week: Eerdmans books are currently on a very deep sale on kindle–most at $3.99 per book!

In addition to the excellent list of recommendations that Beth has put together in her newsletter, I’d like to mention a few more historical reads from Current‘s own writers and friends that also could be yours (digitally) right now for peanuts:

My favorite American historian’s The Politics of the Cross: A Christian Alternative to Partisanship

John Fea’s Believe Me: The Evangelical Road to Donald Trump

Mark Noll’s The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind

Dan Hummel’s The Rise and Fall of Dispensationalism: How the Evangelical Battle over the End Times Shaped a Nation

Daniel Silliman’s Reading Evangelicals and his more recent Nixon biography, One Lost Soul

The Nixon bio I just mentioned is part of Eerdmans Religious Biography Series. Here are a few more books in that series by Current writers and friends:

Allen Guelzo, Abraham Lincoln: Redeemer President

Rick Kennedy, The First American Evangelical: A Short Life of Cotton Mather

John Wilsey, God’s Cold Warrior: The Life and Faith of John Foster Dulles

Eric Miller is the most likely of all Current editors to wish he could co-sign Wendell Berry’s manifesto on never buying a computer. It seems fitting, therefore, that his magnificent biography of Christopher Lasch, published by Eerdmans, only exists in analog form.
