City of gods: religious freedom, immigration, and pluralism in Flushing, Queens (First edition.)

A history and ethnography of Flushing, Queens, in New York City.

An important site in colonial America for its place in the history of religious freedom, Flushing is now perhaps the most striking case of religious and ethnic pluralism in the world - and an ideal place to explore how America's long experiment with religious freedom, immigration and religious pluralism began and continues.
