I'd be too afraid I'd get stuck back then. ;-)Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-54279219500891359062017-06-22T06:20:49.163-05:002017-06-22T06:20:49.163-05:00Elizabeth I was still Queen.

It's been fun to write even though it's forced me to dig through my old reference books and grad school notes. I am fascinated by this time period, although I doubt if I would even vacation there (if offered).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-52864886255264910452017-06-21T18:02:28.946-05:002017-06-21T18:02:28.946-05:00I can see very clearly why Americans wanted religi...I can see very clearly why Americans wanted religious freedom and separation of church and state.
