What It Takes to Be Free: Religion and the Roots of Democracy - Paperback

by Siobhan Nash-Marshall (Author), Seana Sugrue (Author)

This book about America, and its strengths and vulnerabilities, is quite properly a meditation on freedom. No other value is more closely associated with what it means to be American than this. From the quest of the Puritans for religious freedom to the American Revolution, from the Civil War to the War against Terrorism, it is freedom that has been at stake.
