An old book written, around the time of America's bicentennial (1976) that looked back further to America's founding. Peter Marshal and David Manual, authors of The Light and the Glory, informed a generation of Americans about their countries spiritual roots. Now in this time of darkness caused by the Covid 19 pandemic, blundering political situations on both the state and national levels, along with social and racial unrest, this book still shines forth from the shelves bringing light and historical knowledge. Wise is the person who will read it either again or for the first time. Those concerned with revisionist history must read this book. The American story is complex and compelling. All the pieces and points of view of it must be understood, communicated and preserved for generations to come, for fads come and go. ( )

I used this as the primary text for a high school American history course years ago. It is a wonderful history book unlike so many today. You will find the straight scoop here; no revisionist history within. ( )
