"The Ministers of Connecticut in the Revolution" explores the significant role played by Connecticut's clergy during the American Revolution. William Chauncey Fowler delves into the lives and contributions of these influential figures, many of whom were associated with Yale College and deeply rooted in Congregational churches. From the legacy of Thomas Hooker and John Davenport to the activities of Oliver Ellsworth, Timothy Dwight, Jonathan Trumbull, and Timothy Pitkin, the book examines their impact on the political and social landscape of the era.

Fowler sheds light on key events such as the Stamp Act and the religious and political dynamics within Connecticut, including the Haven colony, the Consociation, and the half-way covenant. This historical study offers insights into the intersection of religion and revolution, revealing the profound influence of these ministers on shaping the course of American history. This work is an invaluable resource for those interested in the religious, political, and social history of Revolutionary Connecticut.
