The Faiths of Our Fathers
Through the centuries, the religious beliefs of America's Founders have been contested and misunderstood. Did they advocate Christianity or atheism? Acclaimed historian Alf J. Mapp, Jr. cuts through the uncertainty to show that eleven Founding Fathers, including John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison held beliefs as diverse as their political opinions. These profiles shed light on the lives and times of the revolutionary generation as well as on the historical role of religion in American public life. Paperback, 184 pages.
