Justin Taylor posts a number of positive short reviews of God of Liberty: A Religious History of the American Revolution. Samples:
“This deeply researched, clearly organized, and well written book illuminates a complex and often controversial history. The Revolutionary and Constitutional periods were neither ‘Christian’ nor ‘godless’ as these terms are used in modern polemics. Instead, patriots and leaders of the early United States united to support disestablishment and common principles about the need for virtue to insure republican freedoms, despite holding different personal beliefs. Thomas Kidd is a remarkably sure-footed guide through this treacherous historical terrain.”—Mark Noll
“A truly ‘revolutionary’ book, in all the right ways.”—Rodney Stark
