This was published in 2015. I've always found James Kabala to do solid work. Gordon Wood endorses this book.
And I made the footnotes on page 220 accessible here.
As was mentioned in the note, back in the day when I was involved with
the now defunct group blog "Positive Liberty," through a spontaneous
and informal process that could have occurred only in the age of the
Internet, Dr. Kabala and I mutually investigated the claim that the
Reverend Bird Wilson (James Wilson's son) labeled the first half dozen
American Presidents "infidels."
In fact there was a Reverend Wilson or Willson who made this claim, but it wasn't Bird Wilson. Rather it was James Renwick Willson, a Calvinistic covenanter.
