FYI: David Sehat’s award-winning book The Myth of American Religious Freedom is favorably reviewed in the latest edition of TLS. (It requires a subscription.) Congratulations David! I guess this is a more prominent review than the roundtable we ran on David’s book when it was first published.
David is chairing this year’s S-USIH conference. Longtime USIH readers know that David used to be a regular writer for us. Perhaps my favorite post of his is when he criticized Gordon Wood’s review of Jill Lepore’s book on the Tea Party.

S-USIH Comment Policy
We ask that those who participate in the discussions generated in the Comments section do so with the same decorum as they would in any other academic setting or context. Since the USIH bloggers write under our real names, we would prefer that our commenters also identify themselves by their real name. As our primary goal is to stimulate and engage in fruitful and productive discussion, ad hominem attacks (personal or professional), unnecessary insults, and/or mean-spiritedness have no place in the USIH Blog’s Comments section. Therefore, we reserve the right to remove any comments that contain any of the above and/or are not intended to further the discussion of the topic of the post. We welcome suggestions for corrections to any of our posts. As the official blog of the Society of US Intellectual History, we hope to foster a diverse community of scholars and readers who engage with one another in discussions of US intellectual history, broadly understood.
Congratulations to David!
Congrats to David! That is indeed quite an honor. …But, Andrew, there is NO bigger compliment than to receive a USIH Round Table dedicated to your book!
