Religion of the American Enlightenment

Couverture
Crowell, 1968 - 334 pages
"In this book the author describes the spread of deism and free thought in America after the Revolution, and their defeat during the religious revivals of the early nineteenth century. It treats such important figures as Jefferson and Paine, and provides biographical sketches of lesser freethinkers, with summaries of their works. No other book covers exactly the same ground in combining this important chapter of American history with an illuminating commentary on religious liberalism in general."--Publisher
