What is the author's style in Summer for the Gods: The Scopes Trial and America's Continuing Debate Over Science and Religion by Edward Larson?

Summer for the Gods is written in a third person point of view. Larson, as the author, presents an omnipotent voice, which analyzes the events surrounding the trial and gives it context. Through this voice, Larson is able to guide the reader through the trial, pointing out the important events, and provide a degree of analysis for the trial and events.

Larson spends the first part of the book putting the trial into a wider context and the last part of the book on the legacies of the trial. In the middle section, Larson focuses a great deal of attention on the strategizing of Darrow and Bryan.
