** EPPC Senior Fellow Lance Morrow’s God and Mammon
Is “Sparkling, Elegant,” says WSJ
------------------------------------------------------------
[link removed] is pleased to announce the publication of God and Mammon: Chronicles of American Money ([link removed]) , a new book by EPPC Henry Grunwald Senior Fellow Lance Morrow, whom the Wall Street Journal hails ([link removed]) as “one of our most insightful essayists.”
In God and Mammon, Lance Morrow writes about the ways in which Americans have made money and lost money, and about how they have thought and obsessed about this peculiarly American subject. Fascinated by the tracings of theology in the ways of American money, Morrow sees a reconciliation of God and Mammon in the working out of the American Dream.

Praise for Lance Morrow and God and Mammon:
“Lance Morrow is one of America's greatest and most enduring journalists and essayists. He is venerable.” — Peggy Noonan
“Written during the bleak, bewildering months of the early coronavirus pandemic, God and Mammon is both a memoir and a daily chronicle from one of our most insightful essayists...[God and Mammon] wanders gracefully with the mind of its author, ruminating on the many small and large insights he has absorbed along the way.” — Wall Street Journal review
“In God and Mammon—this original, wide-traveling, and thoroughgoing essay on the troubled yet unbreakable union of America's two deities—Lance Morrow displays the cool passion that distinguishes him among contemporary writers. No stylist is as elegant. No one has more to say about an essential subject, or says it more beautifully. A mesmerizing portrait of our gorgeous, corruptible, soul.” — Roger Rosenblatt, author of Making Toast
“What must it be like to write like Lance Morrow? Not just with exceptional intellect and command of language, but with an enviable collection of mental furniture—just the right reference; the perfect anecdote—and a mind that remembers everything. Goodness, what a talent. What a joy to read his essays.” — Robert Pondiscio, Thomas B. Fordham Institute
“Brilliantly effervescent and eloquent. One can hardly wait for the appointment of the first national Prose Laureate—Lance Morrow. What a writer and what prose!” — Lionel Tiger, Charles Darwin Professor of Anthropology, Emeritus, Rutgers University
