Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book commemorates the founding of a city and state by religious dissident Roger Williams, tracing the principles that gave birth to Rhode Island from their origins in the reformation, through their manifestation in the puritan movement of England, to their bold declaration and implementation in the new world. The book explores the complex and often contradictory nature of these principles in practice, challenging widely held assumptions about religious liberty and democracy. Drawing parallels between the challenges faced by the founders of Rhode Island and those confronting the United States in the present day, the author argues that these principles remain central to the preservation of freedom and the vitality of civil society. Essential reading for anyone interested in history, religion, or the enduring struggle for human rights.
