The Story of Dr. John Clarke, written by Thomas W. Bicknell, is a biographical account of the life and legacy of Dr. John Clarke. Clarke was a prominent figure in American history, known for his role in the founding of Rhode Island and his advocacy for religious freedom. The book begins with a brief overview of Clarke's early life and education before diving into his work as a physician and his involvement in the political and religious movements of his time. Bicknell explores Clarke's involvement in the establishment of the Rhode Island colony, including his interactions with other notable figures such as Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson. The book also delves into Clarke's advocacy for religious freedom, including his role in drafting the Rhode Island Charter of 1663, which established the colony as a haven for religious minorities. Bicknell explores Clarke's beliefs and values, as well as his contributions to the development of the Baptist denomination in America. Overall, The Story of Dr. John Clarke provides a comprehensive and engaging account of one of America's lesser-known founding fathers, shedding light on his contributions to the establishment of religious freedom and the shaping of American history.Story Of Dr. John Clarke: The Founder Of The First Free Commonwealth Of The World On The Basis Of Full Liberty In Religious Concernments with His Grand Motive A Just Liberty To All Men's Spirits In Spiritual Matters By Roger Williams.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
