      title = {Sacred liberty : America's long, bloody, and ongoing  struggle for religious freedom /},
      abstract = {"Sacred Liberty offers a dramatic, sweeping survey of how  America built a unique model of religious freedom, perhaps  the nation's "greatest invention." Steven Waldman, the  bestselling author of Founding Faith, shows how early ideas  about religious liberty were tested and refined amidst the  brutal persecution of Catholics, Baptists, Mormons,  Quakers, African slaves, Native Americans, Muslims, Jews  and Jehovah's Witnesses. American leaders drove religious  freedom forward--figures like James Madison, George  Washington, the World War II presidents (Roosevelt, Truman,  and Eisenhower) and even George W. Bush.  But the biggest  heroes were the regular Americans--people like Mary Dyer,  Marie Barnett and W.D. Mohammed--who risked their lives or  reputations by demanding to practice their faiths  freely."--Page [2] of cover.},
