Loyalism in New York During the American Revolution (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Loyalism in New York During the American Revolution Loyalism, as believed and practiced during the American revolution, had both a religious and a political side. It was based upon the fundamental teachings of Anglicanism, which made loyalty to the ruler and obedience to law religious duties. This did not mean abject submission to acts looked upon as blunders, or as being unjust. It was not "non-resistance and passive obedience," for none upheld and used with more telling effect than the loyalists the sacred right of petition and remonstrance. Only when the issue came to be one between submission to the will of the king and parliament, as expressed in law. and resistance by rebellion or revolution, did religious duty enforce obedience. The political science of Anglicanism was, therefore, a fundamental principle in loyalism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
