About this book

In a pivotal moment for free expression during the late 19th century, C. B. Reynolds faced charges of blasphemy in Morristown, New Jersey, igniting fierce debates on religious freedom and the limits of speech. In "Trial of C. B. Reynolds For Blasphemy, at Morristown, N. J., May 1887: Defence," Robert G. Ingersoll meticulously articulates the defense strategy, emphasizing the importance of unalienable rights and the necessity of questioning dogma in a progressive society. This compelling document serves as a vital resource for students, civic activists, and historians alike, illuminating the tension between belief and freedom. Ingersoll's arguments resonate with contemporary discussions on civil liberties, making this work essential for anyone invested in the evolution of American thought.
