A War of Religion: Dissenters, Anglicans and the American Revolution: Studies in Modern History

Autor James B. Bell
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 mai 2008
Examines the controversial establishment of the first Anglican Church in Boston in 1686, and how later, political leaders John Adams, Samuel Adams, and John Wilkes exploited the disputes as political dynamite together with taxation, trade, and the quartering of troops: topics which John Adams later recalled as causes of the American Revolution.
