Roger Sherman and the Creation of the American Republic
Hall, Mark David (Herbert Hoover Distinguished Professor of Political Science, Herbert Hoover Distinguished Professor of Political Science, George Fox University)
Roger Sherman was the only founder to sign the Declaration and Resolves (1774), Articles of Association (1774), Declaration of Independence (1776), Articles of Confederation (1777, 1778), and Constitution (1787). Roger Sherman and the Creation of the American Republic explores Sherman's political theory and shows how it informed his many contributions to America's founding. Contrary to oft-repeated assertions by jurists and scholars that the foundersadvocated a strictly secular polity, Mark David Hall argues persuasively that most founders believed Christianity should play an important role in the new American republic.
