Publisher's Synopsis
Infidel Death-Beds is a book written by George William Foote and originally published in 1888. The book explores the final moments of several prominent atheists, agnostics, and freethinkers throughout history. Foote provides detailed accounts of their last words and thoughts, as well as their attitudes towards death and the afterlife. The book includes profiles of notable figures such as Thomas Paine, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Charles Bradlaugh. Foote's aim in writing this book was to challenge the idea that atheists and non-believers are incapable of experiencing peace and comfort in their final moments. Infidel Death-Beds is a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between religion and mortality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
