Greene, Maria Louise. Development of religious liberty in Connecticut. **$2. Houghton.
“A welcome and creditable addition to the small list of valuable works on American ecclesiastical history.... The chief bones of contention in Connecticut were, of course, the Halfway Covenant and the Saybrook Platform; and to the development of these great statements, and of the controversies which centered round them, Miss Greene pays detailed and patient attention.... The bibliography lists the principal authorities, including much contemporary material hitherto little used.”—Nation.
“Careful and scholarly treatise.”

“The treatment of this subject is admirable, and is a distinct contribution to the history of our national development. The placing of the references to authorities in the appendix seems to us an objectionable arrangement.”
