    Ten years after the U. S. Civil War, a group of men in Rhode Island made a conserted effort to rescue the widely scattered writings of Roger Williams. Few sets were printed though, and under the guidance of Perry Miller, The Complete Writings of Roger Williams were brought back in 1963, but still in short numbers. The present collection now makes these volumes available to readers in their original orthography.The theme of religious liberty is dominant in these volumes, running through Williams's correspondence with John Cotton and on through his famous pair of works on The Bloudy Tenent of Persecution. All of the extant shorter writings and letters of Roger Williams are included in this set, along with two significant works resulting from his engagement with Native Americans: his seminal Key into the Language of America and Christenings Make Not Christians.""Roger Williams was one of those rare individuals who took the accepted ideas of his time and followed them to conclusions that challenged his contemporaries and still challenge us.

Just as some experience in the youth of a person is ever afterward a determinant of his personality, so the American character has inevitably been molded by the fact that in the first years of colonization there arose this prophet of religious liberty. Later generations could not forget him or deny him. The image of him in conflict with the founders of New England could not be obliterated; all later righteous men would be tormented by it until they learned to accept his basic thesis, that freedom is a condition of the spirit.""Perry Miller (1963)Roger Williams (1603-1683) grew up in Puritan circles in London, sailed to Massachusetts in 1630, and, having been banished for his controversial views on the separation of church and state, founded Rhode Island on the basis of his new principles of religious liberty.

    Internal lies exist within each of us, obscured, denied, or resisted, however resident nevertheless. Some use various forms of behavior modification in an attempt to overcome their dysfunctions. Others insist upon acceptance of their mindsets and actions believing that this is who they are. And still others resolutely cling to familiar lies about themselves due to unhealthy attachment to them. BROKEN LIES is the story of one such person, Chase Macklin, a former drug dealer, who one day has a vivid vision of himself trapped in the web of a hideous spider making her final spin. Suddenly released by a prodigious hand breaking through the webbing, Chase begins a journey of discovering freedom from tortuous and destructive internal lies. Continually haunted by the mystery of the hand and an accompanying voice, Chase considers results more important than the source of his rescue. Written with poignant reflections throughout, BROKEN LIES weaves marital infidelity, deep father issues, untimely deaths, and parental responsibility into a captivating life story of recognizing, breaking, and living free of personal lies.
