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. 000867245 650_0 $$aFreedom of religion$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000867245 85200 $$bgen$$hBR516$$i.W28$$i2019 000867245 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:867245$$pGLOBAL_SET 000867245 980__ $$aBIB 000867245 980__ $$aBOOK
