This truly interdisciplinary volume brings together respected historians, social scientists, legal scholars, and advocates. As their contributions attest, understanding religious freedom demands taking multiple perspectives. The historians guide us through the contested legacy of religious freedom, from the nation's founding and the rise of public education, to the subsequent waves of immigration that added successive layers of diversity to American society.
