Sinopsis

''The Brotherhood of Thieves'' is an 1844 book written by Stephen Symonds Foster, which is a scathing critique of the American Church and Clergy. The book is written in the form of a letter to Nathaniel Barney, a resident of Nantucket. In the book, Foster argues that the Church and Clergy in America are corrupt and hypocritical, and that they are more concerned with their own power and wealth than with the well-being of their congregations. Foster also accuses the Church of being complicit in the perpetuation of slavery and the oppression of black people. The book is a passionate and uncompromising indictment of the American Church and Clergy, and it remains a powerful critique of institutionalized religion and its role in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
