While the Americans were trying to reach the moon the economically and politically suffering British had found a new sort of hero, long distance yachters. The Sunday Times put up a prize for the person who could make the fastest non-stop solo circumnavigation of the globe, a feat thought beyond the endurance of man or machine and so it proved for all but one of the Kiplingesque adventurers who stepped into the breech.

Jesus Camp is both about the tactics of the Evangelical Christian right and how impressionable young minds can be. We follow Levi, Rachel, Tory and other children in a first-ever look at a Christian fundmentalist summer camp, in North Dakota, an intense training ground that recruits underage kids to become an active part of America's political future. There's no dialectics here, no promotion of free thought, and tots as young as six are brainwashed to become dedicated soldiers in God's army and
