The book "The Religion of Politics. A Sermon Delivered Before His Excellency John Davis, Governor, His Honor George Gall, Lieutenant Governor, Honorable Council and Legislature of Massachusetts, at the Annual Election of January 5, 1842" was written by the charismatic preacher Ezra Stiles Gannett. In his journey through the paths of politics and religion, he thoroughly examines the interdependence of these two components of society. Heroically defending the idea of the relationship between religion and politics, the author claims that both of these aspects cannot exist without each other, because each of them determines the values and moral position of society as a whole. Gannett's book is a frank and insightful reflection on the essence of the relationship between power and religion, which remains relevant to this day.
