Let Men Be Free

History & Biography

“A cohesive history of a group as varied as Baptists may seem like an oxymoron. But Obbie Tyler Todd has done it in Let Men Be Free, the first comprehensive history of Baptist politics in the early United States. Anchored in a central theme of religious liberty, Todd illuminates the kaleidoscope diversity of Baptists in the new nation. A go-to resource for anyone reading or writing on religion in the early American republic!”
