Separation of Church & State: What the Founders Meant

David Barton's "Separation of Church & State" addresses one of America's most debated issues by exploring the origins and intended meaning of this phrase. The book examines the Founding Fathers' own words and intentions, challenging modern interpretations that often exclude religious expression from public life.
