A TEXAS FREETHOUGHT READER, a companion to GUIDED by REASON: The GOLDENAGE of FREETHOUGHT in TEXAS, is a collection of some of the best, previously "lost" freethought literature produced by four of the most intelligent, articulate Texas freethinkers of thelate nineteenth and early twentieth centuries: Jasper M. Gilbert, Chas. H. Jones, Thomas VolneyMunson, and James Dickson Shaw.As relevant today as when it was originally written, this selection of articles, essays, and letterscalls into question the veracity of one of humankind's most enduring myths and appeals topeople everywhere, for the sake of the planet, to abandon ancient superstitions, unsupported byevidence, in favor of reason, rationality, and the scientific method.
