Your Baptist Heritage (1620-1804)

Isaac Backus was one of the great Baptist leaders during the early days of the Revolutionary War. This book is one of the few books written from a personal, eye-witness account of events leading up to American independence from England and the securing of religious liberty for all people. This book, originally published in 1844, is probably the only detailed history covering these early years of Baptist Church History in America.
