Description - The Struggle For Religious Freedom In Virginia: The Baptists (1900) by William Taylor Thom
The Struggle For Religious Freedom In Virginia: The Baptists is a historical non-fiction book written by William Taylor Thom and published in 1900. The book covers the religious struggles faced by the Baptist community in Virginia during the 18th century. The author explores the political and social factors that led to the persecution of Baptists in Virginia, including the establishment of the Anglican Church as the official state religion. Thom delves into the legal battles fought by Baptists to secure their right to worship freely, including the famous case of John Waller, who was imprisoned for preaching without a license. The book also examines the impact of the Baptist movement on the wider religious landscape of Virginia, including the growth of other dissenting denominations. The Struggle For Religious Freedom In Virginia: The Baptists is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious freedom in the United States, and the challenges faced by minority religious groups in establishing their rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
