"Religious Liberty in America"

THIS is one of the most interesting and valuable books which has been published by the Review and Herald Publishing Association. It is a compendium of information regarding the growth of religious liberty in the United States. It deals with the rise and growth of the principles of soul freedom. It condenses into a compact and interesting story those developments which have freed the souls and consciences of men from the slavery of an enforced religion; but, while dealing with these elements, the author shows also the trend backward to those things from which the race has been struggling to release itself. This book shows how history in the present day is actually repeating itself in the movements which are now on foot. If men understood what is really involved in these dangerous movements, they would turn away from them and refuse to be parties to this great conspiracy against the rights of men and the prerogatives of God. The circulation of this book will help many to see what is involved in these movements, and encourage its readers to take their stand on the side of truth and liberty.

The book is divided into twenty-five chapters, and contains 448 pages. The writings of the author, Charles M. Snow, one of the editors of this journal and the associate editor of the Liberty magazine, are well known to our people. Brother Snow has given much earnest study and research to the historical data bearing on the question of which he writes, and the book which he has prepared may be considered an authoritative statement of the development of the history of the religious liberty movement in America. This book should be read by all our readers, and should be circulated by them among their friends and neighbors. See advertisement on page 2.
