Publisher's Synopsis
""An Appeal To The Public For Religious Liberty, Against The Oppressions Of The Present Day"" is a book written by Isaac Backus in 1773. The book is a plea for religious freedom and tolerance in the American colonies at a time when religious persecution was rampant. Backus argues that the government should not be involved in matters of religion and that people should be free to worship as they please without fear of persecution. He also argues that the government should not be able to force people to pay taxes to support a particular church or religion. The book is a passionate defense of the principles of religious freedom and a call to action for all those who believe in the importance of religious liberty. It is considered a landmark work in the history of religious freedom in America and is still widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
