paperback; 548 pages
The author of this large volume presents irrefutable evidence that four of the most noted and influential figures of the American founding era — Thomas Paine, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin — were, at best, agnostics or deists, if not avowed unbelievers. The bulk of the book, however, is devoted to shattering the myth that Abraham Lincoln was a devoutly religious man — a falsehood invented following his death in 1865. Also included is a chapter on Ulysses S. Grant, who was a zealous advocate of secularization in the political realm.
