Tim LaHaye, the evangelical leader and co-author of the best-selling “Left Behind” book series, died at a San Diego hospital on Monday after recently suffering a stroke. LaHaye, who livedin Alpine, was 90 years old.

LaHaye was a TV evangelist and an early force in driving evangelical Christians to the polls and injecting their values into the political debate. But the man Time magazine named as one of the Top 25 most influential evangelicals in America is best known for the “Left Behind” books, the blockbuster Christian-fiction series that came to LaHaye on a whim and blew through the book world like a force of nature.
