some soiling to front endpaper and rear cover, several dog-eared pages; no jacket. First printing, full number line. "Miller re-creates the fierce and vibrant debate among the founding fathers over the means of establishing public virtue in the absence of established religion a debate that still reverberates in today's passionate arguments about civil rights, school prayer, abortion, Christmas crèches, conscientious objection during warfare and demonstrates how the right to hold any religious belief has dynamically shaped American political life."
